Molly, Olive and Dexter by Catherine Rayner



Molly's favourite game is hide and seek. I am sure your young reading companion will know how to play this game and that gives this book an extra layer of enjoyment because your child or library group will laugh when they see how Olive and Dexter really have no idea how this game works.

First Olive and Dexter hide their own eyes! Then they hide behind the tree which is right beside where Molly has been counting.  Let's try this one more time. Oh no! The friends are really hidden. Molly cannot find them. 

"What is they got lost when I told them to hide? I'll never see them again and it's all my fault."

Never fear - Molly just needs to look in one more place!

This is a perfect book to share with a very young child. The illustrations by Catherine Rayner are fabulous. She gives each of the animal friends such expressive faces. Every preschool should add this book and the others from this series to their shelves. Here is the Kirkus review


There are four books in this series:

Here are two other books about the game of Hide and Seek:
