Best flap Easter toddler book

Where's Mrs Hen? Amazon
Price: $8.40

Very little ones will love this simple and bold flap book that features a felt flap on every single page! It is not Easter themed either, so will last all-year-long.

However buying just a couple of books is enough because all books are the same and they get predictable."
