Irresistible to inquisitive fingers, the strokeable features within each book in the ‘That’s not my...’ series are designed to develop sensory and language awareness through the bright pictures, simple text and patches of different textures – in this one it’s a wooly hat, silky gloves and squashy socks among others.
A message from Peter Usborne, the founder of the 'That's not my...' series: The ‘That’s not my...’ Touchy-feely titles is Usborne’s flagship series . A phenomenal success it is quite obviously adored by the very young.
This is a new title in the groundbreaking That's not my... series. It is an award-winning series shortlisted for the British Book Industry Stora Enso Award for Design and Production. It combines bright, colourful illustrations with a variety of different textures to touch and feel on each page. It helps very young children develop important language and sensory skills. The Series was awarded 'Best Buy' by the readers of Prima Baby magazine.
