From Booklist:

Billed by the publisher as the biggest-ever Maisy book, this busy, oversize title is a preschooler's delight. As in Maisy's Big Flap Book (2001), there's no story—just an explosion of words and corresponding pictures, and sturdy flaps on each spread add to the interactive fun. With headings such as Getting Dressed and Things that Go, the pages group the featured items into categories, such as clothes, vehicles, food, and musical instruments. The large, primary-colored, clearly outlined images will captivate preschoolers, who will want to point to and name each item. There are a few challenges (a thresher is featured in the On the Farm section) and several appeals to potty humor (a big pile of labeled poop rests near a bull). Libraries should order multiple copies; like Maisy's other titles, this light, bright toddler treat will be in high demand. Engberg, Gillian
