This picture book features six types of animals: dogs, cats, elephants, pandas, giraffes, and rabbits. Each time you turn the page, the picture book expands, and four photos plus illustrations of the same kind pop up. It greatly nurtures babies' cognitive abilities, quadrupling their knowledge and providing an experiential first interactive picture book that also fosters language development.
