A beautifully tactile board book with lots to touch and feel making loads to talk about with young readers. Follow Dot and Dash and their friends as they dress up and play all kinds of games together. Dot has a furry pirate hat, Dash finds a shiny and sparkling magic wand. There’s a filly tutu for Big the elephant and a shiny satin cape for Tall the giraffe.
Dot and Dash are dressing up, and so are their friends Big, Tall and Small. Dot wants to be a pirate, and Dash wants to be a wizard...but Small may have found the best costume of all. Little ones will love spotting the dressing-up costumes in this fun touch-and-feel book.
Emma Dodd was brought up in a family of artists and from as far back as she can remember she has wanted to be an illustrator. I Love My Mummy, written by Giles Andreae and illustrated by Emma, won the Booktrust award in 2010. Among Emma’s favourite things in life are surfing with her kids, punctuality and Scrabble. Things she cannot abide include heights, pate and children who complain that they are bored. ‘How can you ever be bored,’ she says, ‘when you can always draw a picture?’ Emma lives in Surrey.
