Anno's Peekaboo
Mitsumasa Anno. Philomel Books, $11.95 (32pp) ISBN 978-0-399-21520-9
Perhaps the most ancient and universal of children's games, peekaboo is played almost instinctively. In Anno's book for very young children, die-cut hands block a face; flip the hands to reveal a rabbit, cat, tiger, man, woman or a baby. A pair of hands swing back and forth between the pictures on each spread. This is a fun book that will elicit responses from the very young child, with plenty of room for guessing and participation. Ages 2-5. (April)
