I din't wait quite long enough for all the replies, so here are a
couple more.  It is wonderful to see how working together lets us see
both the details and the "big picture."  (Sorry, couldn't resist!)
Enjoy!  Thank you:  Barb Engvall, Joanne Ladewig, Laura Manthey.

Tony and Susan Baracca - they started with a book about an abandoned
dog in New York City, "Taxi Dog" - there are two sequels I think- and
they also did the black cat (though not in every spread) in "Fannie's
Dream" which was a Young Reader nominee in California last year. A cat
(usually black) of some type (not identical) is on each page of Taxi
Dog. One of them is a white cat in the clouds, another is the "Felix"
cat clock, etc...

Keith Baker's book, Hide and Snake is rather intricate as there is 1
item from each page that 'migrates' to the next page...hard to explain
without having the book in front of me, but it is a great book for
visual richness. His Who is the Beast has a snail on each page.

The Three Little Wolves and the Big Bad Pig by Eugene Trivizas,
illustrated by Helen Oxenbury, has the teapot on each page when the
wolves are escaping.

Ellen Jackson's newest book, Turn of the Century, is illustrated by
Jan
Davey Ellis. Ellis has put a cat and a mouse in every 2 page spread.
Also, although not hidden pictures, the borders of the spreads are
significant to the text on those pages.
