Description
Betty is turning six today. She’s going to have an amazing party, but which of her incredible outfits should she wear? And where has she put her glasses? This is a delightful, interactive picturebook, in which young readers are asked to find, choose, count, discuss and otherwise engage with the silly, hyper-detailed illustrations of party games, dance competitions, pizza-making and goody bags.
Some unexpected narrative twists and turns pack each page with lols that will delight young readers and their grown-ups alike.
Celine Ka Wing Lau is a London-based illustrator from Hong Kong, whose bright, vibrant illustrations radiate humour and endearing charm.
Advance Praise
"Along the way, the interactive text invokes different skills from readers: seeking and finding, reasoning, and counting, as well as giving their opinions. The questions will have readers slowing down to savor the art, which abounds with funny details. This tale may be too stimulating for bedtime, but it's sure to delight little ones all the same; emergent readers may want to read it alongside a younger sibling--with an adult on hand to explain some of the cultural and geographical references. A party of a book." - Kirkus Reviews
