  • "This big and beautiful board book ... is one that you don’t want to miss.Not only are oodles of animal sounds featured, but there are questions scattered throughout that ask your child to compare and observe. Also, there is a search and find bar on the right of each spread that encourages counting! Such a great book for keeping little minds busy and happy.” ― Book Nerd Mommy

There are 10 new items on each page to find. The illustrations are bright and cheerful and sure to draw in little eyes and their little fingers as they search for the different objects on the oversized pages. (Samantha Hastings, MLS)
    • Author Bio
    Lizelot Versteeg (1980) studied graphic design at the Academy for Art and Design in ’s-Hertogenbosch, Holland. Since 2002 she worked as a designer for several bureaus in Holland and Belgium, and also worked as a freelance designer and illustrator. She has always had a passion for illustrating, and a love for children’s books. This came together in the beginning of 2012, when her son Lucas was born. She stayed at home for several months, in which she created the concept for her first series of children’s books, Colors Everywhere, Things Everywhere and Animals Everywhere. These books were published under the name her own mother called her when she was young: Lotje, short for Lizelot. The distinctive style of the Lotje books consists of simple, joyful drawings with bright colors. Creating children’s books has been a lifelong dream of Lizelot, and she hopes many more books may follow!
