The accordion-fold book "Who?" based on the poem of the same name by A. Vvedensky was conceived and illustrated in a very unique way by V. Dmitruk. In essence, it is a detective story for the youngest readers, and a rhyming one at that, with plenty of humor!
By gradually unfolding the accordion pages, the reader will join Uncle Borya and Aunt Varya in investigating a complicated case. Here is what happened: someone spilled a jar of ink, knocked "three plates, two kettles off the table, and threw pliers and a hammer into a pot of milk." Just like in a real detective story, there are clues to be found - a wooden pistol, a tin whistle, and a folding fishing rod on the table - and, of course, suspects: a grey cat, a black dog, a turkey as fat as a chest, and chickens. Only, as is typical for the genre, the culprit turns out to be none of them.
The book is full of fun and absurdity! Unusual illustrations flow from one page to the next; they can be viewed like a short cartoon or a stained-glass window made of colored shards. A child will undoubtedly enjoy unfolding the book, following its story and characters!
The story itself is just perfect for acting out, and the whole family can join in: dad (let him be Uncle Borya), mom (let her be Aunt Varya), and the cat, dog, chickens, turkey... if you have them, of course. If not, toys can play their roles along with the children.
The book will help the child develop logic, imagination, and unleash their playfulness and creativity.
