Flip Along Fun: Mix up to Match up .The Right Answer (A Mix & Match Storybook)

FLIP ALONG FUN is an interactive, colorfully illustrated children’s storybook that stimulates the imagination, educates the mind, and provides hours of fun. This whimsical mix and match board book for children ages 2 to 6 has received enthusiastic praise from parents, grandparents, educators, psychologists, and pediatricians.

Children adore creating their own animal stories by selecting story panels. Twenty-seven humorously illustrated panels, each containing part of the storyline, are arranged inside the storybook in three sections of nine panels each. To begin the storytelling, the child randomly chooses one panel from each of the first two sections. The child then completes the story by finding the one panel from the third section that contains all of the animals pictured in the first two.

For example, to learn what happened when "3 pink pigs dancing jolly jigs" (panel 1) "saw 2 yellow cats in very funny hats" (panel 2), the child looks for the one matching panel (panel 3) that contains 3 pigs and 2 cats. And there’s the answer: "They all 5 had a laugh while they sat in the bath"! When the animal illustrations match up, the numbers add up!
