Deep in the Forest - by Josef Antòn (Board Book)

About the Book

Over 50 animals to find hiding behind the trees of the forest, in the water, and even underground.

Book Synopsis

Author Joseph Jacquet and illustratorLucie Brunellière's Deep in the Forest is an interactive seek-and-find adventure for children to explore the animal kingdom.

Deep in the forest, early in the morning, the animals slowly wake--except the panda, who is sleeping in. The monkey stretches, the red ant hides, the black bear yawns, and the gazelle smiles. But where is the okapi? Can you find it?

Over 50 animals--including the okapi--hide on the pages of this beautiful board book. The gorgeous forest scenes take readers from morning to night, from high in the trees to deep underground. Deep in the Forest is as much a visual treat as it is an introduction to exotic animals.

"Jacquet pairs casual observations about the creatures with invitations for readers to locate particular animals in the images and under flaps. Brunellière's expressive, high-contrast graphics provide lots of eye candy." --Publishers Weekly
