First sentence: Hey there! Great to see you again! I'm so excited to be visiting the farm with you. Let's go! Don't open the gate that means you!!! Oh, don't worry about that sign. It's probably nothing. Could you flip open the latch? I can't reach it.

Premise/plot: This is an interactive board book in the sense that it is asking readers to participate using their imagination. (Think Blue's Clues or Dora the Explorer or the like). It is written using the second person--you. The book is pure silliness from cover to cover.

My thoughts: These books fall flat unless you're really to engage fully. I do think the book can be appealing because it is enthusiastically over-the-top silly. I think the person reading aloud can help this be an engaging read as well. (Sometimes how you read a book aloud is so important.)

I like this one, but didn't personally love it.

I still like "Press Here" better as an interactive book, but this one was pretty cute, too. I can imagine making buttons with kids in storytime so they can all press their own buttons during the story as we're reading it. Definitely one to keep in mind for the future...

An interactive, move-about book that kids will enjoy.

Note: I received a digital review copy of this book through NetGalley.

The book interacts with the reader. The first page is a friendly greeting and a warning not to push the button. The following pages are silly chaos based on the assumption that the child has pushed the button.
The moral of the story is if your adult tells you don’t do something, you should do the exact opposite. Your adult is only keeping great fun away from you.
Horrible horrible horrible.
