The paperback version, however, is bigger at around 24 cm square. The pictures themselves are nice and clear, just disappointingly small in the board book version, with the flaps being rather too small and fiddly for little fingers (the board book version measures only 17.7 x 17.8 cm, and is pictured below). The picture and text lay-out is conveniently the same on every page, enabling you to cover the text by taking a single piece of A4 cardboard with a cut-out to reveal only the picture, which will work throughout the book. The book has plain white backgrounds throughout, with the text far enough away from the pictures that you can easily cover it if you think it would be of benefit to your child. We love this book in our house, mostly because my son is obsessed with animals, but also because it lends itself so well to extending into other activities.
