Fun book, but the mechanics don't work very well

This series of books (all by Charles Reasoner) is a lot of fun. Each book has pages that split in the middle and slide open, revealing a hidden picture on a page hidden inside. On each page there is a question - for this book they start with, "Which bug ...?" (i.e. which bug does such and such) and the answer is a picture of the bug inside. The illustrations are colorful and bold and the bugs are cute.The books in this series are some of the favorite books of our friends' daughter (toddler). Our daughter (also a toddler) loves the pictures but the mechanics of the sliding pages are stiff, so she can't slide the pictures in and out herself, and that makes her very frustrated!! This is a great book if you have a toddler who likes to have you read to him/her, and it's also attractive enough for them to read on their own without sliding the pages (though they don't get to see the bugs that way). If your toddler wants to be independent and "read" to him or herself, though, it could be frustrating. It's a very creative idea, and I still rate it at 4 stars because it really is a fun book to read. I think, though, that it doesn't work as well as was originally intended.
