This is a stylish collage series from author-illustrator Lorena Siminovich. Using well-known ojects, in this case vegetables, children can learn basic concepts, in this case spatial words such as in, on, above and below whilst also enjoying a variety of colours and textures. The touch and feel textures stimulate the learning process through another sense.
'These books are subtle, clever and utterly gorgeous. They're also well-made and extremely hardy. What more could you want for your wee one's eyes and hands?' - Kids Book Review
