Follow animal parents and their babies as they play hide-and-seek. Babies and toddlers can lift big flaps and see peekaboo surprises pop up from the pages: a naughty baby monkey swinging from a tree, a messy baby hippo rolling in the mud, a sleepy baby sloth hiding behind the leaves, and a happy baby elephant splish-splashing in the lake. Rhymes encourage literacy and early learning, while the surprise pop-up scenes encourage curiosity. With the help of parents and caregivers, toddlers will have fun turning the sturdy board book pages, guessing what's hiding under each flap, and then lifting the flaps to reveal the baby animal characters and play peekaboo!
