A review by Booktrust wrote "The guessing game itself is great fun, but it's the bold, elegant illustrations and ingenious design which set this book apart, making it a more complex experience for young readers." [1]
I Spy With My Little Eye has also been reviewed by Kirkus Reviews (star review), [2] Publishers Weekly (star review), [3] The Horn Book Magazine, [4] School Library Journal, [5] and ForeWard Reviews, [5]
It was a 2012 Missouri Building Block Picture Book Award nominee. [6]
An ingenious use of die-cut technology to complement the fun of such favorites as Bill Martin Jr. and Eric Carle's Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?
A classic childhood guessing game gets an elegant treatment from newcomer Gibbs in this introduction to colors and animals.
The pattern and hints guarantee success for preschoolers, who will be richly rewarded with each page turn.
