Finn Ojari: the child co-creator of Is This a Plum?, a bold peek-through guessing game — dreamed up aged seven and made with his animator dad — built for read-aloud giggles with toddlers.

Finn Ojari is the young co-creator of the picture book Is This a Plum?, which began as an idea and drawings by him at the age of seven. He shares the byline with his father, the BAFTA-nominated, Oscar-shortlisted animator Dan Ojari, who developed Finn's concept into a bold, interactive peek-through book. Using clever cut-away holes and a call-and-response rhyme, it teases one thing — a plum, a spider — then turns the page to reveal something gloriously unexpected, all the way to a hippo's bum. With high-contrast, graphic artwork and a rhythm built for reading aloud, it is a giggly guessing game and a joyful lesson that things aren't always what they seem — a natural share for toddlers and the very youngest browsers who love to shout out the answers.
