COPY ISBN
Toddler-PreS–Bursting with creativity, this charming title will delight both caregivers and young readers as they discover a hidden handprint on every page. One spread features the text, “My hand is…a happy hen meeting her cute little chick! Cluck, cluck, cluck!” while the illustrations transform a child’s handprint into a hen, set against digital art of a chick hatching from an egg. Children will love pointing out each handprint, and caregivers will be inspired with new art project ideas after reading. The short text filled with playful onomatopoeia perfectly complements the simple yet charming illustrations.
VERDICT A delightful addition to any library collection.
