All about Books – I Spy with Spot (a turn-the-wheel book)

Picked up this book at the Popular bookstore in City Square Mall. It was the adorable looking puppy that caught my eye. The book was sealed up in plastic so tightly that it was hard to get a view of the contents inside. I was pleasantly surprised by the interesting pictures and concepts within. It starts with Spot waking up in the morning and looking out of the window, having breakfast, going to school, painting a picture and finally playing with his friends.

This quickly became one of Thaleia’s after-shower books. Daddy turns the wheel in “excitement” while Mummy tries to dry her, pull a romper over her head, wear a diaper before the pages finish. The vivid colours, the pretty pictures and the wheel-turning effect definitely held her attention.

Page 1:
Spot wakes up and looks out of the window. What does he see?
Turning the wheel shows a bird, then a kite, then a sun and then falling leaves..

Page 2:
Spot is having breakfast with his dad. What will he have?
Turning the wheel shows a cup of orange juice, milk, hard boiled egg and so on..

I never knew dogs can drink orange juice. And, this is a lucky puppy, when he wakes up, he has the TIME to watch birds!!
