Format:Hardcover
My daughter loves Maisy and friends and would choose to have this book read to her every night. On each page there are different weather scenes with movable flaps and sections that are great for little fingers to play with (under guidance). Some of the moveable parts have now been pulled too strongly,but have been repaired! The vibrant colours are great for small children and sound effects my husband makes whilst reading this, has added to the fun my daughter has with the book.

When the book arrived it looked lovely but sadly after a couple of days it was totally destroyed! The pages are very delicate and my toddler oulled a little too hard on some of the tabs.

My son's favorite book
29 Mar 2008
Format:Hardcover
What a great book! This is my 20 month old son's favorite book. He is really into weather, so it is perfect. I agree that unless you have a child that is gentle with books, then it is a "read together" book because he could easily rip off some of the moveable parts. But don't let that stop you - it's a fun, bright and colorful book for boys or girls. The front cover has a moving dial and you can change the weather that shows in the circle to a sunshine, rain cloud, rainbow, wind (shown by blowing leaves), snow or lighting. Each page in the book is dedicated to a different type of weather.
Pg 1: At the start of the story, Maisy opens the curtains in her bedroom (with your help) to reveal a bright sunny day with puffy white clouds and a bird singing.
Pg 2: Sunny day. Maisy changes from her regular clothes to a cute swimsuit by pulling the flap.
Pg 3: Snowy day. Maisy is feeding the birds outside and if you pull the flap the clouds let out a tumble of snow.
Pg 4: Rainy day. Help Maisy jump in the puddles with her flowered umbrella and yellow rainboots.
Pg 5: Windy day. Turn the dial and watch the wind blow leaves, Maisy's hat and kite.
Pg 6: Stormy day. Maisy is sitting on the couch with her panda and kitty, looking out the window at the rain. Pull the flap and "boom!" - the lighting crashes down. Sound effect is provided by the reader of the story, of course.
Pg 7: Rainbow day. Maisy is dancing in the rain, and if you rotate this flap a beautiful rainbow and sunshine pop out. This is the most colorful page in the book. The colors are listed on the left side of the page so you can help your child learn the colors too.

Not "lift the flap"
14 Aug 2006
Format:Hardcover
The cover illustration says "Lift the flap fun." My 2-year-old LOVES Maisy AND flap books, so I bought this. But it really has pull-tabs, which were immediately ripped apart because he doesn't understand how they work yet. The recommended age for the book is 4-8, and I'd say that's about right. Your child needs an understanding of pull-tabs or this book isn't much fun. Otherwise, the illustrations and tabs are delightful.

Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is a great book! Larger than I thought it would be.
My grandson is fascinated by the weather, he is always giving
me the weather report. He is 4 years old and loves this book. We read it over and over again. Plus the interaction of this book is fun for any child.
