A novelty book for very young children - with a colourful surprise at the end! Meet Flip the penguin and spend a colourful day with him from morning till night. Turn the die-cut pages and see him deciding what to wear, playing football, having a walk in his wellies, drawing a picture, having a bath and going to bed. Like Petr Horacek's previous Walker Surprise titles, Strawberries are Red and What Is Black and White?, each page has more cut off it than the one before, so that the layered images finally form a bright, rainbow-coloured patchwork quilt, under which a tired Flip is going to sleep, and on the opposite page, a tab can be pulled to reveal stars glowing in the night sky outside Flip's window. Interactive and great fun, this book is part of Walker's range of concept board books that combine graphic pictures with ingeniously simple novelty devices.

'Petr Horacek brings a magical element to novelty books. [He] understands the wonder with which a child sees the world.' -- The Daily Mail
Petr Horacek is a young Czech illustrator and painter. He works in a mixture of mediums including crayon, watercolour and ink, and his style, which is bold and naive with a very European feel, is full of startling colour. His other titles for Walker include the Walker Surprise books Strawberries are Red and What Is Black and White? He lives in Worcester with his wife, Claire, and their two daughters Teraza and Cecilia.
