Toddler-K–Trukhan can be counted upon to deliver a search-and-find that toddlers will love and even kindergartners will sit still for. Here, a brightly painted little lion on the cover seems to be the one asking, “Little giraffe, Little giraffe, where are you?/ Here I am! Here I am!/ Where are you?” says a giraffe with a blue kerchief. Will children fold down the flap to reveal the mirror to find that they are the ones asking the animals questions and being found? A hippo, a zebra, and that lion finish the game before baby is asked, “where are you?”
VERDICT A child-pleaser, worth repeat readings, as baby after baby will want to see a familiar face behind the animal’s own smiling one.
