I Know Something You Don't Know

I Know Something You Don’t Know!

Former teacher Karen Scheuer wrote her fun interactive book with a guessing game in mind, designed especially for preschool and elementary-aged school children.

When shown only part of an illustration, kids will delight in guessing the object pictured on the page. The author/illustrator provides a glimpse of an object or animal, with the text leading readers to believe it’s something that it’s not. Each page then ends with the phrase, “But I know something you don’t know…”

When the page is turned, the entire item or animal is revealed, and children will see if their prediction was correct.

The book was originally penned when the author attended a “future teachers” class while in high school, when she was 17. It was written with markers, illustrated with crayons, and put together with contact paper and wallpaper.
