Twirl has some adorable new baby and toddler books out this month!
My Books, by Xavier Deneux, (Aug. 2024, Twirl Books), $14.99, ISBN: 9791036369049
Ages Birth-3
High-contrast artwork with punches of color for extra fun punctuate this fun look at having the right book for the right situation. A little rabbit has lots of books, each with a special mission: the yellow book accompanies the bunny on a camel ride in the desert; a blue book accompanies Bunny on a sailing voyage; a green book ventures into the forest. Die-cuts let readers explore with little fingers; foil overlays emphasize spreads. One-two sentence explanations on each spread place readers and set the stage for deeper text. A great little board book that grows with your little ones, this will be a book they’ll return to again and again, while learning that a good book can accompany you anywhere. A fun introduction to colors and concepts!
My Big Book of Happy Sounds, by Marion Cocklico, (Aug. 2024, Twirl Books), $22.99, ISBN: 9782408052461
Ages Birth-3
This is such a fun series. My Big Book of Happy Sounds is the companion to My Big Book of Nature Sounds (2023) and My Big Book of Sounds (2019) and includes over 100 sounds organized into areas that invoke happiness: morning sounds like birds singing, morning kisses, and hellos; garden sounds like birds chirping, rolling in the grass, and backyard bowling; together sounds, like laughing, cuddling, and baby babbling. Each button maps to an area of the book, noted by a colorful icon at the top left hand of each page. At the press of a button, little ones can hear all the sounds illustrated on the pages, all clearly labeled. Colorful illustrations show a nonstop parade of fun activities. Perfect for lapsit exploration or to enhance a storytime, these sturdy pages and buttons will hold up to multiple reads.
