Mix It Up! by Herve Tullet. Chronicle Books, 2014. 56 pages.
Reading Level: Picture Books, ages 0-8
Maturity Level: 1 (ages 0-4) and up
Children who are familiar with tapping screens will know exactly what to do in this fun follow-up to Tullet’s bestselling Press Here. Using the same interactive format, Tullet introduces color mixing by inviting the reader to tap, rub and shake the pages.
Although the idea is not as fresh the second time around, it is still just as fun for little ones to see what happens when you follow the instructions and turn the page. Tullet has a great knack for creating an irresistible hands-on approach to reading, and this book is likely to inspire children to ask, “Can we get out the paints now?” Good for storytime, snuggling, and encouraging fun with art.
