Book 2 – 98 to go. I need to set up a counter!
Smallest was very fortunate to get two of this series from her aunt and uncle this Christmas. They are lovely books – we’ve had many of them from the library in the past. That’s not my bear is pretty popular – it is about bears though rather than teddies. (I’ve a feeling there is a that’s not my teddy too.) I rather like that having different bits of them feely means that an association is being formed with different words – so in this book we get to practise nose, claws, and ears among others. Again they are a nice size to handle, and good solid books that last well with toddler handling. Which is good as they are getting a lot of handling.
On the negative side, I do wish they didn’t have sandpaper sections in them – am I really the only person with a sandpaper sensitivity? It quite literally makes my hair stand on end, even just the thought of it. (And yes, thinking about it enough to write about it is making me shudder…) But apart from that, there’s not really anything to complain about in these books – firm family favourites.
