‘Can you touch your nose like this?

Yes, I can – sometimes I miss!

Can you wave your hands like this?

Yes, I can – and blow a kiss!’

This beautifully designed baby book features simple ‘Simon Says’-style instructions that adults can use with babies to develop their hand-eye coordination skills. The high-contrast images are designed for babies’ eyesight. The lino-cut artwork is stylish and attractive, encouraging young children to develop an interest in books and reading at a pre-literate level.

Spot colour on the spreads and a mirror at the end add further fun for babies. Talking about the pictures helps to familiarise babies with patterns of speech. Talking and listening go together and help lay the foundations for language development.
