Peep Inside Night-Time: 1

This book has been a firm favourite with my toddler, for over 6 months (he’s nearly 2). It’s his preferred bedtime read. Lots of things to look at on the pictures. The flaps make it very interactive. This book definitely stimulates creative thinking and learning.I would say the text is ok, but a bit too wordy. It doesn’t roll off the tongue. That’s isn’t a massive issue though as it’s easy enough to improvise when describing the pictures.I bought it second hand and the quality wasn’t as good as it stated in my opinion as one flap had been torn. However the condition was perfect other than that.

The book is beautifully written and illustrated, with enough text to engage the reader and lots of opportunities to interact and share.It’s sturdy and the peep holes are fun and satisfy curious children. A precocious 3 year old was very engaged with this book and wanted to talk about his knowledge.I loved it.

My 23 month old absolutely adores this book. She chooses this from her bookshelf over the rest of the books. She likes lifting the flaps and finding the smaller flaps to lift. I really like reading this with my toddler as it is interactive and educational. My toddler loves animals, especially owls. She loves pointing to the animals and I can tell she’s picking up new things every time we read this book at bed time.

A beautiful, calming and atmospheric lift-the-flap book. It's perfect for bedtime reading as it peeps into houses, a bakery, animal activity, trains and markets. The illustration is quirky and beautifully coloured and makes you want to go out and prowl round under the moonlight.Some of the flaps (the house windows) are quite small and fiddly - my 2--year-old foud them tricky at first - but they are generally good and reasonably sturdy.My favourite bit is where the baby in the house is awake at night and sleeping peacefully come the morning :)

Wonderful book! I’ve bought a second copy for myself that I can show my little girl when she’s past her ripping off all the flaps stage. I love the people sleeping or reading on the train and then the people buying fresh bread and the other people drinking coffee in the Sunrise Cafe... My daughter loves the book too! She loves the dogs and owl and bats! Lovely stuff!

…the charming illustrations are indicative of the pages inside, which are a real treat for any age, IMO!Now and again a true gem comes along, and, for me, this is one ~ simple enough and appealing to the youngest eye, but with scope for the older one too with smaller flaps to negotiate and text on each page, sometimes a question that offers more scope for discussion about what is going on.The story is set over 14 pages, including the inside covers, in double spread format with durable lift-the-flaps in more areas than you first notice, some smaller than others.There is a surprising amount that goes on in those wee small hours, with short but informative sentences showing what is happening at the bakery café, on the (sleeper) train + the night time workers, the preparation at the market & the sunrise café + what the wildlife are up to.The typically quality produced board book, from Usborne, with ‘LIFT-THE-FLAP’ functionality measures around 16.5 cm x 19.5 cm, with rounded corners and a gently angled spine area that makes it easier to pick up.With more to the cover picture than first meets the eye, the thick cover is a matte finish with a crescent moon cut-out on the front that immediately attracts attention because it looks like it is shining in the starry night sky above the city buildings.The angular fox in the foreground is picked up in the lamplight and the owl’s eyes are bright in one of the trees.The pages inside are suitably set in terms of background colour running from dusk to sunrise hues, as the city wakes, and, as day breaks, the birds start to sing as the owl goes to sleep![7 images attached © Usborne Publishing Ltd]

The book is beautifully made with so much to look at and enjoy. My only niggle is that all the people are white, so not really inclusive or diverse.

I love the 'Peep Inside' series from Usborne Books. This book is simply beautiful and so captivating, amazing illustrations alongside very informative text and fun lift the flaps. This books takes you find night-time for us all the way through the night until early morning when the owls go to sleep. So much is packed into this lovely book, it isn't over whelming but just perfect for 2+ years.

A must-have! This book is awesome, my toddler learns a lot from it. I ordered a used one, but the condition is nice.The shop has a great service and fullfills all your expectations!

My son loves this book so much. I highly recommend it. It has so many cool things for them to uncover inside.

Ho comprato questo libro per avvicinare la mia bimba all’inglese: e davvero carino e ricco di finestrelle da aprire!! Il linguaggio forse è un po’ complesso per essere il primo libro ma è comunque un libro per bambini quindi piuttosto semplice

10 aylık bebeğime aldım ama henüz bu kitap için küçükmüş. Uzun süre keyifle okuruz diye tahmin ediyorum. Kalitesi, renkleri güzel.

Great for kids between 2 and 4. Spent a lot of time with interactive and active story telling with this book. Also this book does withstand damage because kids like to tug forcefully at the tabs and the pages.
