Description
This ingenious, colourful lift-the-flap board book is the perfect first concept book for any Maisy fan. Several new concepts are introduced as Maisy and her friends do the gardening, paint pictures, dress up and play in the park. There are thirty-six differently-shaped flaps to lift, each double-page spread introducing a new concept: numbers, colours, shapes and opposites.
Maisy the mouse and her friends Cyril, Charley, and Tallulah have a busy day of gardening, painting pictures, cleaning the playroom, and romping at the playground. Young readers can lift the flaps--all 36 of 'em--to learn about numbers, colors, shapes, and opposites as the pals go about their day. What objects in the playroom match the shapes on the flaps? What color completes the pictures of carrots, whales, and grasshoppers? The oh-so-cute Maisy is a huge favorite with children, who watch her on TV and read about her in
