This book is fantastic! If you are a librarian or Kindergarten teacher looking for an entertaining text to explicitly teach concepts of print, this is it!
I read this when one of my students returned it and said a lot of the pages were ripped. The interactive flaps are really cute but a little but delicate for young readers.
It is quite comprehensive, explaining each part of the book in a fun way, narrated by Parsely Rabbit. His baby brother gets involved and there are folds out bits to explain more and add to the fun.
- very cute, kid appealing book about books that is humorous enough to be informative but also readable. My son and I loved lifting flaps and "learning" about books.
This is a fun, quirky book that is exactly what the title suggests: a book about books. From the very first page of the book Parsley Rabbit explains with little notes what each part of the book is called and how you read it; including end page to title page and the publisher's details.
