Irresistible ‘touch and feel’ books, these two chunky board books - I Like Peas and I Like Toys - offer a wonderfully tactile experience to the very youngest readers while also imparting useful information. I Like Toys brings the chance to touch the different shapes of the parts of toys while I Like Peas brings a range of vegetables from vibrant green peas to a stunning orange pumpkin to life.
This is a stylish collage series by author-illustrator Lorena Siminovich in which well known objects illustrate basic concepts, in this case shapes, with a simple text to build vocabulary. The touch and feel textures stimulate interaction.
Lorena Siminovich started drawing when she was very young and couldn't seem to stop. She studied Graphic Design in Buenos Aires, and soon thereafter moved to New York in 2001 where she built up an extensive career as an art director for an award winning company.
