Why read it?

1 author picked Flora and the Flamingo as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I grew up loving animation and was captivated by how putting drawings together could create an illusion of life.

This wordless picture book somehow captures that awe with its interactive tabs. By flipping the tabs throughout the book, the characters move and feel like they are being animated.

I love that the story is a dance between Flora and her flamingo friend, literally and figuratively, as they have a disagreement. Everything about this book is well thought out—the interactive mechanisms really enhance the story. Additionally, the drawings are just so beautiful.  It’s simply fantastic!

From Jackie's list on interactive picture books for kids.
