Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

White fluffy tail or blue-green feathers? Hop, slither, and fly from one page to the next in this fun guessing book.

Would you be able to guess an animal if you could see only its tail? Clever clues and a turn of the page reveal its identity. Whether the answer is a slow-moving turtle or a slippery-scaled snake, kids will delight in sharpening their creature-identification skills. Fine-lined illustrations adapted from nineteenth-century artwork give this book a classic feel, paired with soft watercolors and simple, colorful text to keep young eyes entertained. A perfect read-aloud for little ones who love animals -- and for those who love showing that they know the answer.

Leveraging the natural and universal fascination that children have with animals, the book utilizes hints and recognition to build a sense of anticipation on each page, that is resolved on the following page when the identity of the animal is discovered.
