Picture books for everyone

Wonder Mole's Scent Costume Party by Pato Mena

The plot of this book is very simple but that kind of makes it more wonderful. It centers around the idea that the moles can't see the weasel, that all of their identifiers are scent-based. So the final turn is a pretty simple guess for an adult or even an older child who will enjoy the anticipation of what is coming. The younger listeners will likely find it a delightful twist. The simple but exaggerated features of the characters hold appeal for all ages.
