5.0 out of 5 stars
a child's first step into the magic world of books, October 29, 1998
This review is from: Tiger Cub's Surprise (Magic Window Books) (Board book)
A journey by Tiger Cub through the forest. He meets all his friends, the elephant, the snake, the hornbill, ant-eater - they all make beautiful sounds, but none of them are for Tiger Cub - until he runs into his friend the frog - his call needeep-needeep gives cub such a surprise - he lets out a loud roar - " ah that's the sound for me!"
The beauty of the book is in it's format - only 5 inches square , in hard, child proof card - alternate pages are either cut-outs showing what's gone before - or in front, with every second page having a transparent window with a bird, butterfly etc. The whole effect gives a magical 3-dimensional experience as the child works his way through the book.
My 16 month old son's reads Tiger Cub first thing each morning , and last thing at night - It's his number 1 choice from his 100+ title library (which ranges from Animalia to Zeuss)
The only trouble is tracking down more in the series ( Magic - Look Again Books) - our copy was published by Readers Digest Australia in 1995. They cannot help me find more in the series.
I'm working my way through the friendly amazon.com forest, and hopefully we will find some more
