LOST IN SPACE! (Flip and Find), by Ben Newman, Twirl, Sept. 8, 2026, Board Book, $12.99 (ages 3-5)
It’s time to blastoff and complete five important missions in Lost in Space! a new board book by Ben Newman.
Calling all space adventurers!
Let’s journey to outer space, where five mysterious missions await. Your task is to find the right groups of objects―stars, planets, rocket parts, and even space beings!―using the die-cut card included in the book. Flipping and turning the card will reveal the objects and solve the puzzles. An interactive book that helps children develop problem-solving and critical thinking skills while improving hand-eye coordination. —Synopsis provided by Twirl
Lost in Space! is not your typical board book. This interactive read is all about maneuvering a large windowed card to solve puzzles, which will challenge 3-year-olds and be too hard for younger readers. It’s a clever concept, though, that will occupy little ones for a good amount of time. The puzzles help build matching and sequencing skills through brightly-colored space-themed illustrations. Sturdy construction should hold up to lots of play.
