Praise

Originally published by Italy’s Minibombo, this wordless picture book is both a playful exploration of perspective and a goofily amusing animal guessing game…Stylish, charming, and lots of fun.
—Publishers Weekly (starred review)

Each animal is a delightful surprise, staring smugly out at the audience. The rear endpapers feature more, and perhaps different, sets of curious eyes. Borando aims for a high level of visual acuity and sophistication, demanding sharp eyes and a vivid imagination. Grown-ups and little ones will want to experience the fun again and again. Entertaining and mind-expanding.
—Kirkus Reviews

This is not only an entertaining guessing game for children, but it’s working their brains in some pretty powerful ways – asking them to discern meaning by assessing shape, line, composition, and negative space.
—Kirkus Reviews (blog)
