If you take a look in this book, and actually carefully go through every page, you'll see that Pixar puts an incredible amount of work and effort to make sure its animation looks ideal and stunning for every scene. The rough sketches and digital animation look amazing ...

My 13 month old loves this book. It actually inspired her fifth word! We were reading the book and as I was about to say "Peek-A... Moo", I heard this tiny "eek-a" from my daughter. I turned the page for Peek-a-Boo, and before I could say anything, she did it again ...
