What kind of a face would you make if a tickly green bug were sitting on your nose? Or if it were—eek!—inside your shirt? Could you make a scary face to frighten it away? Or, even better, stand up and do the chicken dance? Yes? Then better get to it! This exuberant, interactive picture book starring a bossy little ladybug and a GIANT hungry frog will have kids leaping up and down and out of their seats to dance and make silly scary faces of their own.
Acclaimed author/illustrator Amy Schwartz provides 11 great faces for children to try--happy, sad, giggly, angry, excited and more. Big, bold pictures of children on the left-hand page encourage even the youngest readers to imitate faces in the Mylar mirror that folds over every right-hand page. A great tool for talking about feelings with preschoolers.
Make a Faceis an interactive, concept driven-picture book that shows how different facial expressions connect with different emotions by pairing them with corresponding animals who "come to life" as children make different faces on cue. Can you make a face as happy as a dancing hippo or as silly as a gaping fish? In this riotous, joyful, interactive picture book, emotions and moods are paired with corresponding animals that "come to life" as the young reader performs prompts given by the narrator. Making a "playful face" sends dolphins leaping from the water, and a "frightening face" reveals a great big elephant that's terrified of a little mouse. While learning how different facial expressions connect with different feelings and concepts, young readers will be enchanted by how their participation creates magic at the turn of every page. Stretch those faces, and prepare to use your imagination, because some of them will be challenging, as will getting through the book without dissolving into giggles.
