A monkey warns the reader not to wake up a tiger, panda, lion, and elephant. Vertical sliding panels move as pages are turned to change the expressions on the animals's faces.

Tiptoe through the jungle with monkey, but don't wake the tiger! Each page introduces readers to new animals and their sounds - and venetian paper technology makes the pages move and brings every scene to life.

"Interactive sliding tabs automatically change the featured animal's face with just the turn of a page. A monkey admires his many animal friends--an elephant, lion, wildebeest, and zebra--by complimenting something Monkey loves about their appearance. Each compliment is followed by a page turn, revealing a happy animal expression resulting from the compliment, along with Monkey mimicking the admired attribute--like Monkey using hands to create pretend horns like Wildebeest's--and wishing it were his own. The story ends with the animals sharing how much they love Monkey and the message of acceptance and love in the last sentence, "We love you just the way you are!"--

When spring arrives, baby animals come out to play with the turn of a page! Spring is here, and it's time for bunnies to run, chicks to sing, lambs to munch clover, and ducklings to swim. Readers will delight in seeing animals' faces appear and then change when the page is turned, thanks to the magical venetian blind element. This sweet novelty book is great fun to read aloud and the perfect addition to our Changing Faces series.

"This book offers a portrait of Haḍimbā, a primary village goddess in the Kullu Valley of the West Indian Himalayan state of Himachal Pradesh, a rural area known as the Land of God. Drawing on diverse ethnographic and textual materials The Many Faces of a Himalayan Goddess is rich with myths and tales, accounts of dramatic rituals and festivals, and descriptions of everyday life in the celebrated but remote Kullu Valley. The book portrays the goddess in varying contexts that radiate outward from her temple to local, regional, national, and indeed global spheres. The result is an important contribution to the study of Indian village goddesses, lived Hinduism, Himalayan Hinduism, and the rapidly growing field of religion and ecology"--
