A mother dog finds eight other animals hiding around the house before finding her lost puppy. Flaps conceal the animals. Very young children will join in the search for Spot, with his mother Sally, as she encounters other animals along the way hidden behind the flaps. Each double spread has a door to open or a covering to lift. The large ink-and-water color illustrations abound with good humor.

Rhyming text, textured illustrations, lift-up flaps, and scratch-and-sniff spots teach about animal names, shapes, colors, and numbers, one to ten.

The farm animals try to divert a busy little spider from spinning her web, but she persists and produces a thing of both beauty and usefulness. The pictures may be felt as well as seen.

By pulling tabs and lifting flaps, the reader can help Maisy the mouse wrap presents, open cards, and decorate her house for Christmas.

Biscuit the puppy and the little girl deliver valentines. Folded pages conceal part of the illustrations.

Matt, who loves fire trucks, wakes up one morning to find that he has become a fire truck, with one driver, two ladders, three hoses, and ten boots. Features a gate-fold illustration that opens into a three-page spread.

Half-page flaps enable the reader to mix and match shapes with objects of the same size.

Rhyming text asks if the reader can move like a variety of animals. Striped acetate overlays on board pages give illustrations the illusion of movement.

Rhyming text describes various animals and the musical instruments they are playing. Lifting a movable flap reveals the identity of each animal and the nature of its instrument.
