Feels Real board books for toddlers are filled with vivid color photos of friendly animals-- and the animals truly feel real! That's because every illustration has a texture patch that matches the pictured animal. These special textures feel like the fur or the skin of animals that little boys and girls like to pet or touch. All the animal photos in both delightful picture books seem to come to life when kids touch them and discover how they feel. Colorful Animals shows several especially colorful animals, including a parrot and a fox, among others. Toddlers will feel the textures of feathers, fur, and more.

Pink is the “new black” — for little girls, that is. That’s why pink-mad youngsters are do cartwheels over My Things in the new Pretty in Pink series.

And to make My Things even more pink-tacular, there are little fairies to find on every page.

This book teaches toddlers to count from one to ten.

The double-page spreads overflow with colorful illustrations, fact panels, and essential information. Includes an illustrated glossary and index.
