Clap clap book
(Portuguese edition)
Clap clap book is made to open and to close.
Because every time you open and close it, something inside moves and makes a noise:
Flap, flap… a butterfly flaps its wings.
Fomfim… an accordion opens and closes.
Bong, bong… a boy hits a drum with all his might.
Clap clap book doesn’t need batteries, only your hands, one on each side.
Clap, clap – a round of applause for the readers!
This book is part of the Round Corners collection.

What they say
A round of applause for yet another wholly interactive paper project from Planeta Tangerina. (…) The object-book takes on the rhythm and use that the readers give it. While they read and play, making sounds and gestures, the readers, with each passing page, create their own dynamic, full of the imagination and skill of the person reading.
Deus Me Livro blog, 27/01/2015
For a number of reasons it’s a brilliant book to read out loud. It’s a book full of movement, full of sound, with lots to look at and lots to imagine, inviting active engagement from the reader, it’s full of fun, humour and creativity.
Lo leemos así blog
It’s very creative and a lot of fun. […] one of the most engaging and lively counting books I’ve ever come across. […] Clap, Clap deserves a standing ovation!
The Picture Book Review
A hardback cover and rounded pages are useful for younger page turners, while older ones will contemplate the quirky people and animals composed of geometric shapes illustrated in the brightest of primary colors. The blocky designs and text demand interactive listening, encouraging kids to stand up and move.
