A 2 to 4-year-old who loves interactive elements like peek-a-boo and lift-the-flaps. It is perfect for a child developing fine motor skills and learning about object permanence and cause-and-effect. It strongly appeals to young animal lovers, especially those fascinated by cats.
Parent Prep
No preparation is needed. The book is self-explanatory and can be read cold. The flaps are relatively sturdy, but a parent might want to model gentle handling on the first read-through to ensure the book lasts.
