My 2.5 year old daughter and I have read this book at least once a day since she received it for Christmas and she just loves this book. It is a beautifully illustrated pop-up book that introduces very young children to the wildlife of Asia as it tells the story of little Ping Ping looking for bamboo with the assistance of the friends she meets along the way. Every child who picks up this book at our house has been immediately enchanted with it. When we actually saw the Fairy bluebirds and pandas at the San Diego Zoo recently my daughter was SO excited to see her book come alive. This book has been a wonderful addition to our already BIG toddler/preschooler collection.

I bought this book and another similar book from the same author a while ago when my daughter was only several month old. At the time, it is difficult to share it with her because she is too young and not gentle to the books. These books are combination of lift-the-flap and pop-up. On each page, you lift a flap and something pops up, which is quite neat. Recently, when she turned a year old, they suddenly become her favorite books. She is eager to turn each page and find the surprise (the flap). She tries to be gentle with them too. I find that she is more interested in the books that only have one flap per page than the books that have several flaps per page at this age.
