Time for a game of Easter hide-and-seek with The Very Hungry Caterpillar.

What will we see out in the garden? Who is hiding in the hen house? Can he help the farmer find his sheep? Little readers will love lifting all of the flaps in this interactive hide-and-seek rhyming book as they find the animals and Easter eggs hidden in this book.

Each page of this board book has been thoughtfully designed with two engaging flaps on each page that encourage little ones to join in and read aloud. Perfect for getting very little ones excited about all the farmyard animals found on the farm.
