Rich watercolor illustrations entice young book lovers to this interactive, lift-the-flap book. There is no gimmick here; each spread presents a simple riddle that describes an animal's home. Rich vocabulary — I weave my secret nest...honeysuckle tree...oval hideaway...I nibble sweet berries and gnaw on hazelnuts—delights and inspires inquiry. The text requires a young nature lover to connect his experience with contextual clues in order to predict the creature's identity. Lifting the flap to reveal the answer is a simple reward, yet completely engaging.
