Sad part is the seller issued refund and canceled replacement so disappointed. Will order again from another seller.

In a world where mostly mothers take care of the young ones, in a very thoughtful way, Eric Carle introduces to young minds real life examples where fathers spearhead this part of the duty. And in doing so, they take all the pains to keep their eggs safe till the babies hatch.The book describes the journey of Mr. Seahorse as he vades through water with eggs in his pouch. From Mr.Tilapia who can't talk as Mrs. Tilapia has laid eggs in his mouth to Mr. Kurtus who can't move as Mrs. Kurtus has laid eggs to of his head, the book beautifully talks about parental efforts. And what a way to end the book where after all the endeavour, the babies are set free to explore life on their own.My toddler enjoys this book. Very colourful book, there are special pages where Mr. Seahorse meets variety of sea animals camouflaged. The pages are very soft, high print quality. A very good addition to toddler's library. Personally, I would highly vouch for this book.

I was amazed at the quality of the book - both in terms of content and print.It is really a very well illustrated book and it clearly amazes the child and parent alike. It has plastic sheets that are colored and they flip between the left side and the right side of the page creating amazing illustrations.I would recommend the entire series from Eric Carle and I have gone ahead and bought all the other books from this author in the large size paperback edition.

It's a lovely story of fathers' involvement with kids in the water world. Big book. Lovely pictures and the transparent sheets add to the fun element.

Eric Carle's book "Mister Seahorse" packages so many wonderful themes in a slim volume.The most outstanding premise of the book is about how Fathers care for their children. But within that context, one can explore concepts of life in the animal kingdom. Many animals abandon their young - this book discusses how so many animal fathers share the responsibility of taking care of their young ones.The book has several pages that highlight animal camouflage. Essentially - there is a first transparent page with patterns of sea weeds printed on them. The following page has the picture of the fish. Taken together one can see the effect of camouflageMy children love the layout of the book. Everytime we read this book, they get great pleasure out of turning the pages to discover the hidden fish!

Excellent book for preschoolers.
