My son received his first Usborne book Christmas 2007. It was the "
That's Not My Snowman" book. It is one of those touchy-feely books that Evan can see and feel snowmen on the page and know because its "scarf is too fuzzy" or its "buttons are too bumpy" they are not his snowmen. He ultimately finds his snowman on the last page because his "nose is soooo squashy". In addition to the snowman storyline, there is a little mouse and a bird on each page that he enjoys looking for. This book instantly became his favorite book and we faithfully read it to him even on those 30 degree days as we melted in the summer. This Christmas we bought him the "
That's Not My Penguin" to add to his collection and he loves this book just as much.
Usborne seems to have tapped into what appeals to children of all ages with engaging stories and whimsical artwork. The hardy pages and binding allow them to be enjoyed for many years.
