I have four Chunky Flap books. They are all great except for "Surprise, Thomas".

Each individual page in these books is supposed to tie into a central theme. It is a stretch to say that this book follows that pattern. This book is very disjointed. The text is grammatically awkard and fails to tie each page into the party theme.

There are even a few places where the text doesn't make sense such as when the flaps open to reveal clowns and the text says "shoes" instead of "clowns". There are shoes in the picture but I think clowns are the important part of the picture and they are what fits into the party theme.

This book is a nice size to travel with and the flaps are fun to open. However, there are much better Chunky Flap books. I would recommend getting one of those and skipping this one. "Open the Barn Door" is particularly good.

Our 1 year old son never tires of opening the flaps to see what's behind them!

My son Tommy loves this book. Its small size is just right for him to carry it around with him as a security item, I guess. But I've read it to him so many times, and he still loves it. It's been taped and retaped due to so much handling, but that's OK with him. Lots of fun flaps which he loves to open. A great book!

My Thomas loving nephew loved getting this book for his birthday! It is small enough to carry around and he enjoyed the flaps.

This is a perfect size reading children's book. Very satisfied.

This is my 1 year old sons absolute favorite book...He gets so excited to find Thomas "hiding" behind a ladder! Would definately recommend this book!

My almost 4yr old daughter has had this book since she was a baby and still enjoys it. There's just something about what's under each flap that she likes. She doesn't care a thing about trains or Thomas in general and is as princessy as they come, but she still loves this book. So I just bought this copy for my 2yr old nephew who is obsessed with Thomas and trains.
