Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
Hatchimals
Hatchimals Staff · 2017
55/100
👎 Skip It
A bright, cheerful companion guide for young Hatchimals fans that does exactly what it promises — profiles characters and gives kids space to draw and track their collection. The problem is that its appeal is almost entirely locked to kids who already own the toys, and the content ages out the moment a new series season drops. As a book on its own merits, there's no story, no ideas, and very little shelf life.
