Dudas, Gergely Bear's Merry Book of Hidden Things. PICTURE
BOOK. Harper Collins, 2017. $14.99.
Bear is getting ready for a holiday party
and needs help finding everything a good party requires. Each following page
has a busy illustration--think Where's Waldo?--and the reader gets to search
for the missing item: a stocking in a pile of mittens, a pine cone in a crowd of
hedgehogs, etc. The final page is the planned-for party, featuring characters
from the other search-and-find pages.
This is the kind of book that, when done
right, is a hit for elementary-age audiences; this book is done right. I loved
looking for the missing items and appreciated that they're not all easy to
find! This is a fun choice for anyone's Christmas library collection.
