[.ca] Pooh's Great Big Lift Flap Book (ISBN 0736410945)

My son's favorite book:
My son has literally worn this book into pieces so I'm ordering another one. He absolutely loves the birthday page where Eeyore is celebrating his birthday with all his Hundred Acre Woods friends. The book is more for the youger set showing simpler concepts such as cause and effect but it can also be useful for pre-schoolers because it demonstrates opposites. I've found that although my son loves lift-the-flap books, it is a hit or miss sort of situation as far as whether your child will find it absolutely engaging or pass it up on the shelf for another. I couldn't give the book 4 stars because like almost all the lift-the-flap books out there, it isn't rugged enough for the abuse that they tend to receive. I can't blame this particular book for that design problem but because the book doesn't handle well with a tough kid like mine I have to score it lower. The flaps are on the delicate side and after they lift them quite a few times they get easily torn.

Disappointing:
My two-year-old barely looked at this book. She loves lift-the-flap books and loves Pooh, but we found the flaps to be very boring. The book has over 60 flaps, but they reveal nothing intresting. Honey pot standing up becomes honey pot tipped over. Pooh smiling becomes Pooh with no expression. Snoozeville. If I had looked at it in a store, I would never have bought it. I highly recommend instead "Arthur Goes to School".
