A perfect book about sharing for your toddler — with clever die-cuts showing how two friends can be happy enjoying things they want together.

When two rabbits want the same carrot, how can they decide who gets it? When two monkeys want the same banana, what are they to do? The answer becomes clear when you turn the die-cut pages to find the answers underneath in this clever concept book from a board book master creator Yusuke Yonezu. This adorable and interactive book is an ideal way for young children to learn the importance—and fun—of sharing.

★ "Sharing is caring, and this small gem of a board book is a delight to share with little listeners.” —Kirkus Reviews, starred review

Praise for Sharing

Praise for Yonezu's board books:
"I appreciate a publishing company that understands how very difficult it is to make a good board book. . . . this book is pretty much brilliant. It shows animals apart who, when put together, make different shapes. Circles, squares, triangles. . . . The art is bold, colorful, simple, funny, sweet, touching." --Elizabeth Bird, A Fuse #8 Production, School Library Journal
"Japanese author/illustrator Yonezu marries color, animal, and shape concepts with die-cuts and a reassuring theme of love in an expertly designed and executed board book. . . . Yonezu's simple renderings radiate happiness and charm on every page." --Publishers Weekly
"Our picks for the best board books of the season: ...an enticing blend of elegance and whimsy." --School Library Journal, slj.com
"If you're looking for an original counting book, I recommend Seek and Count by Yusuke Yonezu. This 20-page board book's bright graphic art will engage young hands. ... Seek and Count delights while teaching young children their numbers from one to ten." --Christine Van Zandt, Good Reads
