Who Was That?

Description

This fresh, visually sophisticated addition to Who Done It? and Who What Where? tackles the topic of memory, as each page asks the reader to remember a detail about the characters featured on the page before. With die-cuts, clever folds, and imaginative illustrations, this book requires the sharpest readers' keen attention! The call to action on every page makes this a wonderful lap read or read-aloud-kids will love the memory games. The delightful, subtly whimsical art will bring this book into the hands of design-conscious parents, too.

Olivier Tallec graduated from the Ecole Superieure des Art Appliques Duperre in Paris and worked in advertising as a graphic designer before devoting himself to illustration. His work has appeared in many newspapers and magazines, and he has illustrated more than sixty books for children. He lives in Paris, France.

"Olivier Tallec's interactive, pencil-case-shaped picturebook Who Was That? hones memory and observation by asking children what they saw before the page was turned. It offers silly pictures of impassive kids and creatures (underpants on heads, bottoms in the air), and the chance to do better than adults. And once children have it by heart, you can invent new questions of your own." Sunday Times Culture
