Books with author Sam Taplin

This is a charming Easter book with a counting element for little children, with one big colourful easter egg to find under a flap on each spread. Children will enjoy helping each group of baby animals to find the egg that the Easter Bunny has hidden for them - lambs, ducklings, chicks, puppies and kittens. At the end of the book there's a chance to count all five eggs, and to find the elusive easter bunny under a flap. The scenes include: lambs in a meadow, ducklings on a pond, hens and chicks in the farmyard, puppies in the garden and kittens in the barn.

This is a beautifully illustrated introduction to the magic of Christmas. This charming board book follows Santa as he flies through the night sky, tiptoes along the rooftops and leaves presents under the tree. There are five big Christmas presents to discover, each behind a shaped flap which lets you guess what the gift might be. The book also has die-cut holes to peep through in each page, revealing surprises when you turn over to find out what you were actually glimpsing through the hole.
