PreS-K–In the latest offering from a beloved board book series, Leo visits a restaurant with Daddy and Nana G. Leo’s stuffed animal, Mr. Seahorse, makes an appearance in each spread, providing a fun seek-and-find element for little readers. Hearson’s uncluttered illustrations in a classic color palette will keep children engaged.

VERDICT This gentle board book works best where the series is already popular.
