Review

As the second Hide and Seek Harry title this board book works well with the toddler age group. Harry the hippo loves to play his favorite game, hiding behind and under objects smaller than him. The positive approach to the game reaffirms that play does not have to include competition. Harrison's illustrations are adorable and employ limited background. His use of white space and straight line drawings makes this an attractive offering for sharing at bedtime. This is a book that will be purchased as a shower gift and by grandparents who love to read while on stype with their grandchildren.

Overall Book Score: good
