Featured in The Bookseller's August 2023 children's previews. * The Bookseller *

I like all the bright colours in this book and enjoy touching the pages with the animals on, especially the sea horse. But my favourite bit is the big pop out spider at the end! I like their big eyes and the way their legs move up and down. -- Dylan, 14 months, and Mum and Dad * Books Up North *
