Description
Mix and match the faces of the members of a family to hilarious effect.
Family Flip Flap is a re-issue of a limited run book from 1982 (previously entitled Family Scramble), illustrated by classic children's illustrator, Maureen Roffey.
The tops and bottoms of faces are bisected so that they can be mixed and matched to uproarious effect; Aunt Helen sucks a dummy, Tiny Tess mends a car, Mummy makes a mess and Daddy does his homework. Children ages two and up will delight in subverting traditional adult-child roles in this deceptively simple flip flap book.
Clear, accessible illustrations maintain their vintage feel whilst being further revived by the use of neon colour throughout and gorgeous packaging.
