46. Peek-a-Clue: Animals at Home. Gideon Sterer. Illustrated by Marcos Farina. 2026. 38 pages. [Source: Library] [4 stars, board books]
First sentence: I purr and I slink. I like to eat fish. My scratchy pink tongue laps milk from a dish. My ears are quite pointy. I lie in your lap. The thing I love most...is taking a nap! Who am I?
Premise/plot: Peek-a-Clue: Animals At Home is a board book with unique cut-outs that 'reveal' the mystery animal. In this one there are three mystery animals to be revealed--one page, one clue at a time. The text and the illustrations both contain clues.
My thoughts: I enjoyed the cut-outs! The premise isn't particularly unique, but, the cut-outs are a bit more unique. I definitely would recommend to little ones.

First sentence: I have a long snout full of teeth that go chomp! My spiky green tail sweeps through the swamp. My legs are quite little and so are my feet. Watch out, you fishes....I like to eat! Who am I?
