Fun and Games

Alain Grée. Button (PGW, dist.), $12.99 paper (60p) ISBN 978-1-90898-580-4

This follow-up to Grée’s recently published Activity Book presents more than 50 activities that feature images from the French illustrator’s body of work, much of which he created in the 1950s and ’60s. Perforated pages let readers remove the individual activities, which include quizzes, spot-the-difference games, counting challenges, and retro game boards. Several pages include shapes that can be cut out to build objects such as a three-dimensional puppet theater or a chain of Santas. Featuring expressive animals and dot-eyed, doll-like children, Grée’s vintage images and games offer an engaging detour back to a less plugged-in era. Ages 3–up. (Apr.)
