Nicely, there This simple little book builds tension through the use of a guessing game and the wonder of waiting for an egg to hatch. Nicely, there is more information at the end on each of the animals as well as information on chicken egg development. It is the illustrations here that really make the book.

The texture also reinforces the natural subject matter in a subtle way. A great pick for toddlers, this book will keep them guessing as the pages turn. Expect to have to share it again and again. Appropriate for ages Oct 10, Jim Erekson rated it liked it Shelves: picturebooks , informational.
Ward's sense of rhythm for this rhyming text was pretty good. I didn't need it to rhyme, but not having it be that same sing-songy cadence showed some skill and control on her part. The painted-on-wood illustrations were beautiful to look at with the texture showing through, and Ghahremani's design sense. She actually gets the design credit for the book in the front matter. The cutouts were fun, but not as meaningful as in some other books, so I would say Ghahremani just wanted to try it.
In a b Ward's sense of rhythm for this rhyming text was pretty good. In a book like Night Light each cutout was central to what I needed to pay attention to and comprehend.
Playful features like cutouts or pop-ups shouldn't be there just because we can. I was so hoping to see her use 'taglion' and 'aerus' in this book, but no dice ; May 08, Cemeread rated it liked it Shelves: children , storytime.

The end pages include information about the time in egg, where the nest is located, how many Illustrations showing the environment and the nest will give readers a clue to what animal will hatch.
The end pages include information about the time in egg, where the nest is located, how many siblings, and what the mother does after laying eggs for each of the animals. A great opportunity to bring in a non-fiction book as well.

Sep 07, Christy Valyou rated it it was amazing. Wonderful, engaging book for the kinder-aged crowd! Children will love running their fingers over the cutouts as they guess which animal will hatch from its egg on the next page!
A fun book that teaches true information in a playful way. Love how the author limited her use of words but still conveys the important information.

The rhythm was a bit uneven--this is the only reason I didn't give it 5 stars--but I loved the die-cut illustrations, the not your everyday choice of animals, and the learning factor. Simple, beautiful, graphic, excellent book.
