Who's Hiding?

Who's hiding? Who's crying? Who's backwards? Look carefully! is it dog, tiger, hippo, zebra, bear, reindeer, kangaroo, lion, giraffe, monkey, bull, rhino, pig, sheep, hen, elephant, or cat? Can you tell? Look again...18 fun-loving animals can be found on each question-posing page, sending readers into an up-close, attention-to-detail discovery. This book is fantastic to read aloud, especially when you get to the final two pages: Who's eyes? Children learn the names of animals, to recognize expressions, colours and how to count. "It is so simple, and so clever," says Gecko Press publisher, Julia Marhsall. "Whenever I read it out loud I am surprised when I turn the page - it never feels predictable."

“I think it is quite brilliant…it’s a really special one.”, “For the very small, the year’s best book”, "A little gem of (not overly) cutesy Japanese graphic design, which asks about the animals that are illustrated in a simple question and answer format", "The interactive aspect means that young children and adults or older siblings can have a lot of fun reading it together, while kids also learn to pay attention to detail."

Satoru Onishi was born in 1955. He studied art in Tokyo, Japan, and now works as a professional illustrator.
