The Super Science Book

Childrens Toy Shop > Children & Baby Books > Books for Babies
by: Kate Petty, Jennie Maizels

August 15, 2002
I orginally bought this book as a present for my nephew but haven't been able to part with it. Each page is full of delight and fun encouraging the exploration behind all the 'pop ups'to find the answers. Although I learnt nothing new (I'm over 60) a child would find plenty to make them open their eyes and see and understand that science is all around them from baking to music. I just wish this had been available when my children were little. I can't wait to have the excuse to buy the other books in the series.

Where is Jess?: On the Farm (Postman Pat Lift the Flap Book)

Childrens Toy Shop > Children & Baby Books > Books for Babies
from: Egmont Books Ltd

April 02, 2007
My son got this when he was about 18 months and is now 2 and a half and loves it. It was the first bok he learned to 'say' the animal noises in as he lifted the flaps to look for Jess but kept finding other animals instead. A simple book that hits its target audience perfectly.

Nutty Numbers: A Lift-the-flap Book (Dr Seuss Lift the Flap)

Childrens Toy Shop > Children & Baby Books > Books for Babies
by: Dr. Seuss

November 03, 2003
A wonderful and fun introduction to counting for younger children. Done in typical Dr Seuss style - short rhymes, colourful pictures and the added element of a lift flap will make it a favourite. Since I came across this new series about a month ago, my 3yr old has become really interested in these books and wants to read them every day - usually more than once!!

The Three Little Pigs and Other Stories: A Lift-the-flap Fairy Tale Collection (Lift the Flap Fairy Tales)

by: Nick Sharratt, Stephen Tucker

September 01, 2006
My 3 year old loves this book....we only received it a few weeks ago and have read it over 25 times already. The illustrations are great and the book and pull out flaps are pretty sturdy in comparison to the other books I have bought recently. I am just about to buy the other fairy tale book in this series!

We read this book almost every day! Since she was 5 months old my daughter has shown obvious pleasure when I choose this story to read. She even has a favourite page that she laughs at each time! I don't get tired of re-reading this book, I want to buy more in this series!

Peace at Last

Childrens Toy Shop > Children & Baby Books > Books for Babies
by: Jill Murphy

October 24, 1997
My 2 year old loves this book especially as he can interact do the different noises on each page. We're now on our second copy as the original was so tatty and even his carer in nursery is finding it difficult to get him to read a different book in quite time.

The Mystery of the Vanished Prince

Childrens Toy Shop > Children & Baby Books > Books for Babies
by: Enid Blyton

October 04, 2004
I read all the Mystery series as a child, and having a daughter of my own, hope she enjoys them as much as I did. These books are not very politically correct, everyone lives happy lives and can roam around with no danger. However I enjoy reading them even at my age. This book is about a prince who is kidnapped and the Find Outers, through luck, disguises and detective work, discover where he is. Ah, if only real life could be like an Enid Blyton book ....

Dear Zoo: Big Book (Big Books)

Childrens Toy Shop > Children & Baby Books > Books for Babies
by: Rod Campbell

February 23, 2001
This book is a complete classic that will delight children from a very early age. We started with this book when our son was about eight months old and he has enjoyed it ever since. Each page has an animal hidden behind card doors and toddlers simply love opening the doors to reveal the animal behind. Once again these animals give scope for further fun with parents doing the sounds of the animals, which in time children will copy. We found that when we did the animal sounds our little boy would carefully study what sounds we made, leading to our total delight one day when we heard the sound of a dog coming from our little boy. Personally I feel that the pictures of the animals could be a little larger, filling more of the pages - but this ... Read More:

Sharing a Shell

Childrens Toy Shop > Children & Baby Books > Books for Babies
by: Julia Donaldson

April 06, 2007
My 2.5 year old got this for her 2nd birthday as our introduction to Julia Donaldson and it is a firm favourite! She loves the rhymes and the pictures, and knows it word for word! I don't get bored of reading it either, which is usually a good sign!
