Shortlisted for Baby Book Award, Early Year Awards 2009
Irresistible to inquisitive fingers, the strokeable features within each book in the ‘That’s not my...’ series help an owner to know more about an animal. In That’s Not My Frog, the frog’s tummy is too squashy, the feet are too silky, the tongue is too rough but frog’s throat is just right.
A message from Peter Usborne, the founder of the 'That's not my...' series: 2009 sees the 10th anniversary of the first publication of That's not my Puppy, the very first title in our flagship Touchy-feely series. Now a phenomenal success, this series is quite obviously adored by the very young.
This is a new title in the groundbreaking "That's not my..." series. Award winning series shortlisted for the British Book Industry Stora Enso Award for Design and Production. This book combines bright, colourful illustrations with a variety of different textures to touch and feel on each page.
It helps very young children develop important language and sensory skills. Series awarded 'Best Buy' by the readers of "Prima Baby" magazine.
