4.3

This book has a simple story with a fun guessing game. The illustrations are fine, and there's a good amount of text per page--not too much. My toddler would like reading this and guessing along, but I'm not sure how well it would hold up in subsequent readings.

This story shows that waiting is worth it. Sometimes things take a long time but if you wait, there is usually a wonderful surprise at the end.
