About the Author:
Mathew Price was a children's bookseller before launching as a packager in 1983 and as a publisher in 1998. He is the author of many acclaimed books for young people.
From School Library Journal:
PreSchool-Grade 1—A rosy-cheeked family of five comes across a little green frog and decides to take him home in a jar. Throughout the day a kitten, canary, mouse, and puppy join the family as well. The father carries each one in a separate vessel. This cumulative tale is part memory game. The pets are reviewed with each new addition and hidden under flaps made up to look like containers. Although the flaps add a level of interaction, they could be damaged with frequent use, and the characters remain flat. More lively and engaging lift-the-flap animal books include Matthew Van Fleet's Alphabet (S & S, 2008), Eric Hill's "Spot" series (Puffin), and Lucy Cousins's "Maisy" books (Candlewick).—Laura Butler, Mount Laurel Library, NJ
