A wordless concertina board book of big, bright faces to place around
the baby on the floor at tummy time--family faces on one side and toys
on the other--by award-winning author/illustrator Gavin Bishop.
This safe and sturdy fold-out book is a perfect gift, with compelling
illustrations of the things babies love. Friendly faces from the whole
family combine with familiar toys and objects, drawn in bold lines with
a striking minimalist color palette.
Tummy time helps to strengthen a baby's back, neck, and shoulders. The
strong, simple images stimulate developing eyesight, allowing babies to
see things up close and from a different point of view.
The images are perfect for introducing first words and concepts as baby
grows, with 12 family faces--including the dog--and 12 objects that
babies love to hold and explore--soft toys, ball, keys, an enticing pair
of spectacles and more.
