Baby Loves Summer! Karen Katz. Little Simon, $6.99 (14p) ISBN
978-1-4424-2746-4
This companion to Baby Loves Spring! uses large flaps to reveal
some of the best things summer has to offer. One of Katz's
typically pudgy and cherubic babies peeks behind a curtain to see
the rising sun; into a beach bag to find her flip-flops,
sunglasses, and hat; and under her towel to uncover "My shiny
swimming tube!" Reader-directed questions ("Who is hiding behind
the tree?") and the interactivity of the flaps make for an engaging
and buoyant summertime adventure. Ages 1-4. (May) --Publishers
