A delightful first storybook designed for older babies. PLAYTIME STORIES is a unique way for parents and babies to share and discover stories together. Each spread has finger trails cut into the page, and textured illustrations for little hands to trace. The trails wind their way around illustrations so that baby explores the illustrations on the page. Carefully placed, evocative text is a springboard for readers to take the story into new directions of their own. Each spread is a compete story that allows the baby and parent to spend time looking, talking about, exploring and touching the page. With beautiful, warm illustrations to capture the imagination, and a gentle rhythmic text, these books help the adult to teach their baby about the world around them and encourage language learning and communication with their little one.
