From School Library Journal
PreSchool-K-A guess-the-whole-from-the-parts concept book. Using bright photographs and simple rhymes as clues, the parts of a familiar item are shown on one spread with a photo of the object in its entirety revealed when the page is turned. Sharp, colorful close-up pictures fill the pages, while a snappy text offers hints about the answer. For example, tightly cropped shots of wheels, seats, lights, and doors followed by "Red lights flash/when it stops for us/Climb on board the big/ SCHOOL BUS." There are also shots of paws, tongue, nose, and tail that evolve into "His fur is soft,/his nose is wet/A loyal/DOG/is one great pet." This will have appeal for the nursery-school set; it is not as sophisticated or clever as Tana Hoban's Look Book (Greenwillow, 1997), which uses peek holes to develop a similar idea. For libraries with a demand for concept books, this one adequately fills the bill.
