It’s a day in the life of a playful little green sauropod, complete with peekaboo felt flaps.

When readers lift the egg-shaped flap on the recto of the opening double-page spread, the dinosaur hatchling is born. The youngster immediately explores her world by wondering who is behind a bush made of green felt. Spoiler alert: It’s her new friend, a pink triceratops. This duo rolls in the mud, which is a swatch of tan felt, and looks for a place to clean up, which turns out to be a strip of white felt evoking a waterfall. Fortunately, the fabric flaps are sturdy and can withstand substantial yanks. Each double-page spread is presented in the simple question-and-answer format of many lift-the-flap offerings: “Who’s that hiding behind the bush? / It’s a new friend!” The pictures on these 10 pages are stylized cartoons drawn with a cozy, rounded line and featuring creatures with oversized eyes. Except for a few swaths of hot pink, the color palette employs muted shades of ochre, yellow, green, and black. It is slim on content, but the fabric flaps will provide toddlers with some sensory fun.

The cozy flaps are more engaging than what they reveal underneath. (Board book. 6 mos.-2)
