Where’s the engineer? Here she is! Where’s the astronaut? Here he is! This simple board book will be loved by many babies and could be used as well for early readers. There’s gender and racial diversity in the people, and the animals and aliens aren’t immediately assigned a gender. The flaps are felt rather than the usual paper so they may hold up over time a bit better. The colorful illustrations paired with the brightly colored felt flaps will help to keep babies engaged while providing different textures as well. Definitely recommend this for anyone with a child who’s in the phase of flaps and exploring with touch.
