On each spread of this guess-the-animal book, several first-person sentences and natural-hued realistic illustrations give clues to an animal's identity. Readers open the flaps to reveal the species inside the egg (e.g., alligator, emu, butterfly), with text labeling and describing it. The book's fairly obvious visual and verbal hints are best for a younger audience.
