Awesome for working on animal sounds and the pages are the perfect size for babies to turn independently! He really loved it from about 5-7 months. ### ⭐⭐⭐ 3.0 out of 5 stars Not as good as "Peek-A-Who" *by J***N on Reviewed in the United States on June 27, 2015* I purchased this book because my daughter LOVES Nina Laden's "Peek-a-Who?" book, and I thought we would explore other books by this author, hopping to reproduce the same joy my daughter has with Peek-a-who. Sadly, it's just not as good. It's not a bad book, but it has some room for improvement.Pros:- cut out pages are easy to turn by little hands- part of the adult animal is revealed through the cutout in an artistic way- children learn the names for baby and adult animals, insects, birds, amphibians, plants, and humans - great varietyCons:- the art has a lot of black flecks in it and is a bit stylized. I realize this is the style of the illustrator/author, but it kind of gets in the way of portraying an iconic image of the object in a way that would be easily recognizable to a child. For example the cat in order to have the fish in the bowl turn into its eyes is positioned face forward with its large round body behind. It's just a little weird and looks a bit menacing. The puppy's eye doesn't quite match up with the dog's eye in the cut out, which makes it look a bit weird or off.- the colors aren't very bright, kind of dark and muddied. Great for the tadpole/frog pic, but disappointing for rest of the book. For example, the kitten-cat pages are like a burnt sienna/ dark orangey color. All the pages have dark colors (dark blue, dark purple, dark green, etc.)- the text isn't as engaging. A kitten grows up to be a cat. A puppy grows up to be a dog.. A [blank] grows up to be a [blank]. And on, and on. There is rhyme - (dog-frog, tree-me) but it's not great. As much as I try to read this book with enthusiasm and throw in some of the animal sounds, (I've yet to figure out a sound for tree, so things get awkward and silent at that part), I find reading this book tedious and a bit boring.Is it a terrible book? No. I think it will be a great learning tool as my daughter gets older (she's 13 months now). However, it's not a great book, and certainly a far cry from the infinitely entertaining Peek-a-Who. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Bad mirror but well loved book *by D***E on Reviewed in the United States on July 24, 2014* Delivered fast. At first my son (who has then, just turned 10 months) was a little creeped out with the pictures but after we got through the entire book, i knew it was a hit. He would always get this for story time (next in line is peek-a-who). This must be his favorite book as of present. This is a very cute book with holes. A kitten grows up to be a...(turn the page)cat, and so on.. The only complaint and only reason i am not giving this a five star is that, we got a very bad mirror. The one on the last page where "baby grows up to be..me". Such a pity really because my son adores this book and the peek-a-who we purchased has a clear shatter proof mirror in the end which is what i am expecting with this one as well. I might be the only unfortunate one to get a defective one and even more unfortunate that i find returns such a bother. My son has worn it out (he flips through the book alone) as it is perfect for his little hands. It's been a month and it is still a favorite but he skips the last part because he cannot see himself unlike when reading peek-a-who where he is excited and expectant of seeing himself in the end. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ph/products/17291409-grow-up-board-book-may-1-2003](https://www.desertcart.ph/products/17291409-grow-up-board-book-may-1-2003) --- *Product available on Desertcart Philippines* *Store origin: PH* *Last updated: 2026-05-04*
