My 22 month old loves Maisy! When you add in the tabs she can pull and the simplicity, this book is great.

The pull-flaps are well made. The story opens up all sorts discussion topics. The left side contains talking points for children to grow into -- not to mention a search-and-find option both my boys love.

2.0 out of 5 stars disappointing; poorly made, March 15, 2008

This review is from: Maisy's Nature Walk: A Maisy First Science Book (Hardcover)

I bought this for my 2 1/2 year old grand child. She loves Maisy as well as being able to pull and push or open and shut parts in a book. So when Amazon sent me this announcement I ordered it. I think I incorrectly assumed that if they were telling me about this book that they had "tested" it. From the first reading it was clear the book is poorly made. Some of the flaps don't work at all. Overall a poor quality product.
