Review: Have You Seen My Friend?

Rabbit has a friend. But she keeps disappearing. Like magic.

They’re playing cards, they’re playing table tennis, they’re playing chess, and then poof! Rabbit’s friend is just gone.

But Rabbit has a trick up her sleeve to stop her friend from magically disappearing, and it’s kind of genius.

Have You Seen My Friend? by author/illustrator Jo Dabrowski is a gorgeous lift-the-flap board book with both humour and heart.

With simple text, story reveals hidden behind flaps and lovely paper-art style illustrations, this is a great book for little ones. But it’s not like most lift-the-flap books written for young kids because the funny parts (which you’ll find when you lift the flaps) will seriously give adults, and older kids too, the giggles.

A lovely choice for the whole family, the book's hardy physical design will withstand curious young hands and it’s a book new readers can tackle independently.

Have You Seen My Friend? is fun and quirky, and it brings lift-the-flap books to a whole new level.
