Board books always scream texture to me. I imagine that is because by their very nature they are tactile…grubby little hands paw all over them. And maybe chomp on, too – but isn’t that a whole different story?
And this one is darling.
A curvy, concentric die cut is one thing. (It’s awesome.) A curvy, concentric die cut hiding a goggly-eyed orange owl? (More awesome.)
Each page turn reveals a bright color palette, contrasted with the colors of the previous page. That’s what makes those concentric circles especially dynamic.
And the collage of textures…whoa. The pages feature cut paper or fabric-like overlays which frame that felted owl with a beautiful connection.
Lovely little book. Surely you know someone HOO needs it?! (Couldn’t resist. So sorry.)
Hoo but you could get away with the groaner jokes?
Darling book too!
Cute book for little people!
What a gorgeous little book, Carter! Just perfect for the youngest set!
What a beautiful book! I’m going to get it for my little grandson.
Thanks!
Ooooooh. Pretty! Hoo knew?! Thanks for the great recommendation!
Owls seems very popular. This looks like a cute board book for babies!
I want to squeeze that owl!!! But that may not be wise! LOL!
Beautiful book!
I really appreciate the books you have highlighted. They are each so interesting and unique.
