PS
While the goal of enlarged titles may be to stand out on crowded board-book shelves, they also let the bold and engaging art shine and offer extra space for flaps to lift. As many of these books are read on the laps of grownups, they can offer an immersive seek-and-find experience. This is evident in one of the largest board books I have ever reviewed at more than thirteen inches high and over ten inches wide: a German import, A Day on Fluffyville Farm: A Look and Find Book by Britta Teckentrup. Here youngsters can explore the same farmhouse and environs on each double-page spread, providing the setting for the lively comings, goings, and even intrigue of the resident critters.
