Niki Naki Noo is a children’s picture book with a target age group of 2-7 years, although I’d say more at the younger end of the scale. The author has set up the rhyming narrative structure and no complex use of language in the book makes it more appealing to its readers. The text to visuals is balanced and encourages visual engagement. With so many questions arising as the book progresses, this is a good start to inspiring and educating developing young minds, plus of course encouragement of reading.
