Time to Play! (A Lift-the-Flap Book) by Nigel Gray, illustrated by Bob Graham Baby-PreK 24 pages Candlewick January 2008 Board book     Time to Play! is a charming lift-the-flap book that will lead young readers through a little girl’s house as she tries to round up her family members and pets for a morning of fun. She looks in the bathroom, under the sink, in the bed of her cat and the bed of her dog trying to locate everyone. On a number of pages, young readers will be delighted to actively participate in the search as they lift the flaps to see who might be hiding underneath. The simple rhythmic text, the inviting illustrations, and the opportunity for interaction make Time to Play! a wonderful treat.     web reviews   Lori West/2008 for curled up with a good kid's book   For grown-up fiction, nonfiction and speculative fiction book reviews, visit our sister site Curled Up With a Good Book (www.curledup.com)
