"This book is so fun. Lift the flaps and the illustrations become something else! Daisies become a sheep. A marigold becomes a rooster. A dandelion becomes an actual lion. See if you can guess what each flap will uncover."—Imagination Soup

Familiar flowers become surprising creatures with the help of lively lift-the-flaps.

Blossoms turn into animals with the lift of a flap in this fun board book. Young readers are encouraged to use their imaginations to guess what animal will be revealed. A tulip becomes a yellow cat; a white daisy turns into a sheep. What will become of a cherry blossom, a dandelion, and a pansy? Children will enjoy brainstorming to guess each surprise.
Yusuke Yonezu was born in Tokyo, Japan, where he still lives with his wife and children. As a child he loved to draw and make toys out of paper and boxes. He went on to study design and became the creator of many board books, puzzles, and toys beloved by children and their caregivers around the world. View titles by Yusuke Yonezu

"Many of us like surprises. There is something about seeing, experiencing or receiving a surprise that makes life feel somehow richer. Little children, in particular, love surprises, even little ones like seeing a frog in a pond, watching a plane take off, and getting to pet someone’s puppy or kitten.
Once children figure out how the pages work, they will want to try to guess what is hidden under the flaps in the rest of the book, and they will have lots of fun coming up with ideas."—Through the Looking Glass
