My 2 year old daughter just loves this book. She reads it every day. She has actually worn it out and that is why we are purchasing another copy.

4.0 out of 5 stars A great book for sharing!, March 3, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Peekaboo Bugs: A Hide-and-Seek Book by David A. Carter (Bugs in a Box Books) (Board book)

My 20 month old received this book from Santa. She LOVES it. It only took one time for her to figure out what she was supposed to do. SHe pulls this book off the shelf every night and morning and says "read this". My 3.5 yr old and my 20 month old can actually share this book, each turning flaps on one page until they find their bug. The flaps are not that durable though, and I have had to make several repairs on the flaps with tape. But the concept of the book is great for the 1-2 yr old set.

My 2-year-old loves David Carter books, especially Peekaboo Bugs. He enjoys looking for the bugs, and the things he "finds" along the way are great vocabulary builders. He selects this book again and again. My only complaint is that it should have more durable flaps.
