A favorite! My 18 month old daughter received this for Christmas along with the Little People Zoo playset. The animals in the book look exactly like the plastic figures from the playset which helps her identify who is who. The flaps have withstood countless openings from little fingers without any tears. There are tons of flaps!Each page of the book has a "theme." The first page teaches animal sounds, the second page colors, the third page counting, the fourth "actions/verbs" and the last page animal babies. The "action/verb" shows: lions rolling, zebras jumping, giraffes racing, elephants splashing, people riding, etc. There are also great illustrations in the background for your little one to point out. My daughter calls this her big zoo book to differentiate it from her many other zoo books.
I bought this book for my 2 year old son. He likes the Little People toys and dvds, and I thought he would enjoy this book. He absolutely LOVES it. There are a LOT of flaps for him to lift and explore the world of the Little People. The best thing is this is a durable book. Even my son, who is not the gentlest of all people when it comes to his books and toys, has not done any major damage to his book. Highly recommended for any child who likes the Little People, enjoys reading, and likes to lift the flap to discover new things.
For starters I wasn't too sure about buying into corporate kiddies tied to an array of toys and accessories. Well, excuuuuse me for being such a snot. The Fisher-Price Little People are big hits in our household and actually are calm, pleasant, kind and appealing characters.We began with Little People DVD's that came packed with some Fisher-Price toys. They now see constant use. The Little People have distinct personalities, some gumption and a lot of energy, but they are cooperative, loyal, positive and friendly in all of the best but not preachy ways. That leads us to this book. All of the Little People are in it. If your reader recognizes them, that adds to the fun. If not, it doesn't matter because each page of the book is self-contained. The first two page spread is animal sounds. The next spread is colors, then counting, action, and babies.There are eight flaps per spread for a total of 40. The paper stock is pretty heavy and the flap hinges are double folded to reduce stress. A kid could tear one off if he wanted to, but the flaps so far have withstood even rough normal wear and tear.The book is irony free. There aren't any little inside jokes for mom or dad, and the whole project is sort of innocent and mild. That's O.K. by me because this is aimed at the 2 to 5 crowd, not hipsters in training.So, an all around upbeat, colorful and entertaining effort that is little kid approved.Please note that I have no connection at all to either the author or the publisher of this book.
We loved this book so much we bought the series (Farm animals, jobs, Noah's Ark, Halloween, Easter and Christmas). I can't recommend this enough. The quality is outstanding. The pictures are bright, the flaps are sturdy but not hard to open. My almost 2 year old brings these to me over and over. We saw a real blossoming of her vocabulary shortly after giving her the first few of these. There were endless questions we could ask her about each page as we looked through. In each of the books the pages are themed to cover concepts like animal babies, shapes, counting, colors etc. One of the best purchases I have ever made for her.
not the greatest story, but my almost-3-year-old loves lifting the flaps (i usually make up my own story to go along with it). It's 5 scenes on 10 pages (so you open up the book and each scene takes up two pages). Each page has about two sentences worth of words.Oh, i should also add that there are some animals in this zoo that i'd never heard of.And one last thing that bothered me a little is that the last page says that the baby animals want to return to their moms ... what about dads?! Like I said, I make up my own story rather than reading what's printed so I don't mind much, but I wanted to mention it anyhow.
This is our son's new favorite book. It is very wide, with each page containing around 4 or 5 flaps to explore. It is also sturdy and holds up well under our son's less-than-gentle treatment. (Among his current favorite activities is trying to tear the flaps out of his flap books.) The pictures themselves are vivid, contain images of most of the animals about which children are first taught, and teaches children animal names, the sounds they make, counting, and more. This is one highly rated book that lives up to the hype.
I just love the variety of these characters and my Grandaughter and Grandson can both play together. I would recommend this toy along with the talking zoo. A toy that lasts the time of toddler years. Generates creativity.
Ten years ago my baby niece adored this collection of little people books. They are educational and their I'd tons to see on each page. I'm now a nanny and I purchased two different ones for the twin two-year-old girls I nanny for and they love them!
