“Maisy’s Surprise Birthday Party” by Lucy Cousins is part of the “Maisy First Experiences” book series. It seems like an odd entry into the series, which prepares kids for the first time they experience something, like going camping, having a sleepover, learning to swim, since surprise parties don’t seem that common.

Premise aside, the book is still fun and bright, like all Maisy books, and kids will get a kick out of watching Maisy get surprised and have a fun birthday party. Aimed at children age 2 through 4, this book is an additional purchase for your Maisy collection.
