A migrating bird loses sight of his flock in this interactive story that teaches left and right

It’s migration season, but when Simon’s flock turns “Left!” he accidentally turns right—and finds himself separated from his friends. To find his flock, Simon asks other animals to point him in the right direction—but Simon (and the reader!) must remember their lefts and rights.

Readers flip through the pages and open a gatefold, following Simon as he turns left and right—past monsters, through space, on either side of the globe, and even back in time until he finally finds his flock! Reunited and ready to restart their migration, all the seagulls go “Left!” again. Will Simon follow them, or go his own way?

Expressive illustrations and funny scenarios provide an interactive and entertaining opportunity for young readers to go on an adventure and practice left and right.
