Simple, yet educational
This book is very simple, yet it is very educational, but more important, FUN for my 11-month-old granddaughter. She loves all books, but especially ones that she can interact with. The pullouts on this book are excellent...very strong, yet easy for a young child to move.The pictures and colors are vibrant!! She absolutely loves this book...it is a must to own. Purchase at least one of these great board books by Chuck Murphy...there are 3 others...Shapes, Counting and Opposites. I gave the exact same review to the other book she has in this series, "Counting" because it is also a great book to own.

We loved the book, but....
The book is great - no complaints from my son, for sure!However, it didn't take long for him to tear it to shreds.It is still salvageable, and we can still enjoy parts of it, but for the most part, in a short 5 minutes one of the pull-outs was already out.I think this book could have been made a little sturdier... but overall, I am happy!

Fun & Learning
Purchased this book based on good reviews; and heartily agree.My daughter is now 2 and still enjoys the book; pulling out the sliding pages & naming the pictures and colors, not to mention the practicing of motor skills!An excellent addition to your bookshelf or as a gift. ... Read more

A nicely illustrated pop-up based on the Disneyland ride.
The Haunted Mansion pop-up book is based on famous Disneyland attraction.The art is quite nice and there are lots of "pop-ups." There iseven a hologram inside! Some of the ghostly inhabitants are a little scaryfor really young kids but all in all it's a nice book even if you aren't a Haunted Mansion enthusiast. ... Read more

Coffee Table Book/ Toddler RippingFun!
Pros: beautiful and fun to "read"
Color Suprises
This is the most fantasitc pop-up book!!! BUT DO NOT BUY IT from AMAZON!Every "new" copy they sent us had the same broken piece (the green square, which when pulled, a lovely green snake appears from behind).

a fun way to learn colors and animals
My 16 month old loves this book and it's one I don't mind reading over and over. Each page has a colored flap, which when lifted (or when the tab is pulled), reveals an animal of the same color. Some of the animals, like the green snake, are particularly wonderful. It is not the sturdiest toddler book, as the other reviewers have noted. My son would likely destroy it with his enthusiastic pulling if I left him alone with it, so we save it for reading together. Another sturdier pop-up book that I recommend is "Tails". We also enjoyed "The Wheels on the Bus" pop-up although our copy is currently in need of repair! ... Read more

This author is brilliant!!
All of his seek n slide books are amazing and I highly recommend them.My daughter knew all her colors, shapes, numbers and opposites before the age of 2 because of these books. Opposites, just like the others, are made specifically for a younger child.I would say 9mo -3 yrs old.My daughter LOVES to pull the slide tabs out and they are very sturdy and have held up to constant pulling. These books teach by reinforcing what is learned in the pull tab. It is a great memory game as well. Chuck Murphy knows how to make books that younger kids will not only appreciate but actually learn fast!

Dazzled
My son loved this book so much he destroyed it.It is a very sturdy book, but he read it so many times it finally fell to pieces.I just bought him a new copy--what more can I say. ... Read more

All time Favorite
My 16 month old LOVES this book. It is actually the only book she asks for. The pop-up constructions are easy enough for a baby to figure out how to operate. For the most part, they are also durable and hard for her to tear. She acts amazed by every pop-up and says "oh!" it is so cute! We also like the Color book by the same author, but my daughter prefers the number one - the pop ups are a little more complex.

One to Ten Pop-up Surprises
This little book is charming.The art work is crisp and imaginitive. The groups of pop-ups on each page, illustrating the numbers from one to ten, are very nicely done and images on each page are attractively different from those on the page before. The book is well constructed and easy for young children to use.It is a good value for the price.

Bought it 2 times
My son is visually impaired and just loves this book.He actually learned how to crawl by his father and i sitting at opposite ends of the room and "reading" the book.He would crawl between us.I could get him to stop anything he was doing and crawl to the book.Then he wants you to read and read and read it.We read it so much in his first year, we had to buy it again.Yes it is not durable, but I don't think there is much to be done about that. ...

Wonderful
Neither of my sons could get enough of this book and it's pictures as toddlers!!!

Must-Own Book for Babies & Toddlers
I have spent hours and hours researching and ordering infant and toddler board books.I'm trying to create a book lover out of my 16 mo. old...and it's working with the help of authors like Chuck Murphy.I promise - this book will become a favorite in your household.It is a simple design, like infants prefer, and offers them something interactive to work on - pulling the flap out.Each page contains one large colored shape on a black background (the color contrast is PERFECT for infants to focus on the shape) and a page which you pull out to reveal a real-word object that corresponds to the shape.My son has spent countless hours looking at all of Murphy's books and working on the flaps.I highly recommend this whole slide n seek series.Excellent!!!

She loves to slide!
The teachers in my 14 month old daughter's art class read this book once and I thought it was a good book.I brought it and my baby loves to slide the pages in and out.She already knew how to say star, moon, and heart, but now she can recognize more shapes.I brought one for her little playmate, and the mom loves it too.

Really fun little book to read with your little one!
This book is so sparkly and fun!Each number has that number of items on the page, with some part of the item all sparkly with shiny paper.My two year old loves the one robot and the 3 blocks best, and I think the 10goldfish are really pretty.This book will really get kids interested andmotivated to learn numbers and count. ...

Baby's Favorite!
This is the first book my daughter fell in love with and we have to keep reading it to her over and over.She loves the pictures, the sparkle and the faces.When we close the back cover she complains until we start over.She has had this at just a few months old and now that she is about to turn one, I am about to order another as the original is worked over a bit!Read more

Terrific book
I've searched long for this kind of book. I thought about making my own flash cards, but this book does it for $6.

A fun read, a sweet book
I have ALL of the Razzle Dazzle books and this one is my favorite. It is in the form of a poem, with each page being a line telling something else that "I love". It's fun to read and easy to learn. When I am somewhere with my son and he is getting fussy, I start reciting, "I love the sun, I love the moon, ..." and I have his full attention and he settles down to hear the rest. A wonderful book!

Dazzle is great for babies
I think this book is great for infants it really attracts them because of the dazzle and the book also ryhmes. my baby loves it and always smiles when i read it to him.

My baby loves it!!!!!

make a game
Great way to practice beginning sounds.Make a game of guessing what's under the picture.

Good Book to learn Alphabet
Both the illustrations and design of this book is not so attractive.Worse than that, the flaps are very easily torn.It is not easy to push the flaps back, even for the adult. Quite disappointed to purchase this book.The price is also quite expensive compared with the quality. Not recommend to own one if one has another better choice.

This book totally captivated my 5-year old!
When we first saw this book in a local store, my daughter could not put it down!Murphy creates exciting pictures and images by using the ABC's. This is a great book to help your little one learn the Alphabet and create adesire for reading in a fun, non-pressured way.I recommend it for anypreschooler, and I know this will be a treasured book in our family foryears to come. ...

How to entertain a 3 year old: Give them Black Cat White Cat
Do you want a book that will captivate your youngster or one you know? This book will do it. The pop up demonstrating "High Cat Low Cat" are some of the best I have seen in the last 12 years. Not only do they open & fold with ease, you can turn the page quickly and not worry about the pop-ups getting caught or torn. The fold out sections of the book are equally as wonderful; "Black Cat White Cat" goes from a serene black cat looking at you to a surprised expression on the black cat as the white cat jumps out to chase a red ball. The pull tabs are easy to operate (a minor miracle in it's self), and yield a round of giggles as the "Young Cat" becomes "Old Cat" with the widening of the face, and the jowls of the cat poof out. Delightful way to approach opposites!.

Beautifuly crafted pop ups
I bought this book for my nephew, and I almost kept it for myself. A captivating book for a 1-yr-old cat lover
This is a great "opposites" book.The young-cat, old-cat transition is facinating to me, but my son loves the cat that leaps out at you (out-cat, in-cat).He laughed really hard as I had that cat pop out about 10 times in a row.Read more
