McDuff's Hide-And-Seek: Lift the Flap/Pull the Tab Book

We love all the McDuff books. This one is just as cute and lively as the other ones. The drawings are beautiful, and the story is cute. My daughter loves reading her "puppy book". Plus, we have a Westie so that makes it even more special to us.

This is our Daughter's ABSOLUTE favorite book...she wants to read it every night before bed. Perhaps she has a preference for this book because we have a westie just like McDuff, and we replace the name McDuff with our dog's name, Bailey. Regardless, she loves the flaps and "helps" us to pull the tabs. Given the fact that we read this so often, McDuff has only "needed one repair" so far, he just "jumped off the page." I recommend this book to everyone who can supervise the reading time until the child is old enough to respect books on their own.

With all due respect to the previous reviewer, this book was great for my daughter. I agree that some children might have trouble pulling the tabs, but then, some children have trouble resisting the temptation to eat bugs - what can you do? My little one really enjoyed this book as she tore it to smithereens. A bunny here, McDuff there, a tree - whoops! Soon, we were down to a few remaining flaps and the fixed images, but she still loves the thing. Now, this could be indicative of some sort of cognitive dementia, but I think she is just having fun. I am now ordering her another copy. Perhaps now that she is rapidly approaching one year of age, she will have the maturity and forethought not to rend McDuff from the pages. Or not.
