She looks straight at the reader, shouts “Go,” and assumes a fixed (but always amiable) gaze. \u003cb\u003eIngenious, interactive, and just meta enough, it may even convince a few reluctant readers that staring at a book can be a lot of fun.\u003c\/b\u003e\"--\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly,\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cb\u003estarred review \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\"\u003cb\u003eCompetitive readers will love this picture book\u003c\/b\u003e.... A young girl kicks the tale off with a challenge: a staring contest. Before you can say “go,” she’s looking out at the reader, gaze friendly but unblinking (she won’t be easy to beat). A bird flies along and asks if it too can join in on the contest. Before the reader knows it, the pages are filling up with creatures determined to keep their eyes wide open.\" --Bookish.com, Summer 2017's Best Children's Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"A \u003cb\u003ejolly fun interactive read-aloud\u003c\/b\u003e, perfect for one-on-one and small group sharing.\"--\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eISBN:  9781250117366\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ","brand":"Feiwel \u0026 Friends","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":40597484667086,"sku":"9781250117366","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0600\/7029\/7806\/products\/getimage_af99deac-6a85-454e-b10e-0d320dc6c7b8.jpg?v=1637881299","url":"https:\/\/pickwickbookshop.com\/products\/9781250117366","provider":"Pickwick Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
