Nothing beats sitting with a baby or toddler on the knee and sharing a book.

The words provide a language of communication long before conversation is possible and the joy in recognising them over many re-readings provides endless shared pleasure while the pictures can be enjoyed first jointly and then by the child alone as they pour over the images they love.

 

Included in our selection are a range of really sturdy and interactive books suitable for the bedroom, the car, the bath, the buggy and the playroom.  Books that even the tiniest baby will enjoy alone and with their parents.


Titles in this section will be refreshed each month with a range of new and older titles that we feel should not to be missed by any baby or toddler.

 

There's even a competition to win some Baby and Toddler books to celebrate not just the launch of this new genre but also to celebrate 10 years of a brilliant series of books for Babies and Toddlers - 'That's not my...' which began with the wonderful, That's not my Puppy.  Just go to our Free Prize Draws page for more details or click on the That's not my Puppy cover to your left.
