This is a great book for young toddlers and children. My 1 year old liked this book.
It has lots of bright colors and fun “peek a boo” details to keep kids engaged and involved in the book.

This was such a cute little book, one I would love to read again and again with my baby. There was a good rhythm to the story and the colours were bright and engaging!

It was very cute and well constructed. I loved the interactive aspect to engage the child reading it while also helping them identify various animals.

I thought this book was so cute! I loved the pop up feature because it’s perfect for neurodivergent children without it being too much or overstimulating. The cover pulled me in and lo and behold- my niece loved it! I can’t wait to give her the physical one. Thank you to the publishers

In the Jungle is a cute, rhyming, interactive children’s story. It’s colorful, eye catching and a nice introduction for little ones to animals and their characteristics.

This book popped out at me! It is colorful and happy! Who doesn’t like flip books! I especially like that there’s mirror at the end for the kiddos to high-five themselves, I just hope it’s a clear mirror and not the ones that you can’t actually see yourself in.

A flap playbook like this is very entertaining. I can imagine the kids I know getting obsessed with a concept like this (kids hold on to an obsession for 48 hours at max so this is a win)
I love that such a concept gives the kids a playful introduction to the animals.

The illustrations are fantastic and who doesn’t love a flap book. This is a book that will be read over and over again I’m sure!

Another boardbook that teaches children about different animals while also having pop ups and cute bright colors to keep them entertained. Also another cute little ending with a mirror for baby

Was this review helpful?

In the Jungle is such a cute board book and a great interactive way for toddlers to learn animal names!

Was this review helpful?

This is a very simple picture book for very young children. Each page is written with the first line of a short rhyme and when they lift the flap, it finishes the rhyme and invites the child to high five the animal. Finishing with a mirror to include the child in the story is a lovely touch. Very simple, bold pictures, this would be a lovely book for a baby or toddler.

Was this review helpful?

This book is beautifully designed with popping illustrations. The rhyming words will be easily repeated and loved by readers. Little bookworms will love the animals and enjoy exploring as they turn the flaps up! Can’t wait for this book to be published.

Playful, fun and educational book.

Baby readers will meet four animals in In the Jungle. By flipping the pages, meeting a new animal friend, having a high-five…! And finally there’s a super guest the baby reader will meet.

Lovely content, beautiful picture and creative idea. I’m sure the physical will be so much fun to read!

Books like In the Jungle are some of my favorite for the early toddler stage. The rhyming and activity that kids get to engage in help nurture a love for reading and literature. This book has a great cadence to it, and the illustrations are very pleasing.

In the Jungle is an adorable flip book for young children. It’s beautifully illustrated and shows many animals.

This would be the perfect book for young children ages 1-6 in my opinion. My students always love flip books, and the vibrant colors pull in your attention.

I recommend this book for parents and early childhood teachers.

Thank you for the opportunity to read and review this book.

Such a cute playful rhyming book! I will be buying for my nephew on release day. LOVE the mirror at the end!

Everything you could want in a baby board flap book. bright fun colors with such amazing artwork! What baby doesn't love to give high-fives?! I know its one of the first things my kids learn! I loved this book, and still cannot get over the pictures!

Was this review helpful?

This is a colorful lift-a-flap book for babies featuring several jungle animals. The illustrations are big and bright without being overstimulating, and I liked the interactive aspect of giving the animals high-fives. I read a digital version, so cannot speak to the sturdiness of the flaps.

Thank you NetGalley and Quarto Publishing Group for this advanced copy. All opinions are my own.

This book was visually appealing and a great way to encourage text to reader interaction for little ones! I loved the rhymes, bright colors, and animals.

I'm a huge fan of these kinds of board books. Tiny kids can feel comfortable handling the books, turning the pages, and lifting the flaps, all while learning about animals. In the end, there is a space for baby's face.
Thanks to NetGalley for letting me read this

Darling board-type book featuring peekaboo flaps and high-fives. My 2.5 year old twins loved looking at the colorful illustrations with me and I'll be buying this for sure. Mirrors always make for nice endings too!

Lovely, bright and colourful baby book. Interactive and rhyming, with a variety of animals to high-five in the jungle. A great little book.

Was this review helpful?

This book is SO cute. I love how it has the pages that flip open. The interactive high five is super sweet. I can see a child getting excited to high five the different jungle animals.

Was this review helpful?

This interactive board book features 4 jungle animals that are both adorable and interactive. It features flaps for your child to open and give each character a high five, and there's also a fun mirror surprise at the end.

I would say this is a good selection for babies and toddlers due to their shorter attention spans because there isn't a ton of dialogue, but what is there rhymes and they can engage with the flaps and mirror while reading.

I am looking forward to seeing the bright and colorful illustrations in stores when this book is released at the beginning of March 2024.

Thanks to NetGalley for sending me a digital ebook ARC of 'In the Jungle' by Jess Hitchmen in exchange for my honest review.
