This book has a great variety of projects using many different techniques and media. Full color photographs and explanations for each project make them easy to duplicate. Also, there are many pictures of other projects done using similar techniques. As a homeschooling parent of elementary-age students, I found this book to be a great addition to our art curriculum. I can teach art concepts ...             That's Not My Dragon (Touchy-Feely Board Books)10 reviews Fiona Watt Usborne Books, 2006 We love this whole series The illustrations are simple and engaging, the textures are varied (both within a book and from book to book), and the wide-ranging adjectives in an otherwise repetitive text make these books good vocabulary builders. Can't recommend this enough for babies, toddlers, and even preschoolers.             That's Not My Puppy: Its Coat Is Too Hairy (Watt, Fiona. Usborne Touchy-Feely Books.)33 reviews Fiona Watt Usborne Books, 2001 Well done! That's Not My Puppy: Its Coat Is Too Hairy is short and sweet on length, but wonderfully entertaining with textures.

Cute, educational, and very, very ...             Animal Hide-And-Seek (Touchy Feely Flap Book)7 reviews Jenny Tyler Usborne Books, 2003 Animal Hide-and-Seek This is a fabulous book for babies 8 to 9 months and up.

It's a flap book and a touchy feely book that is beautifully illustrated, colorful to look at, and holds up to their handling over and over. Older children love reading it to ...             What Shall I Draw (What Shall I Do Today Series)13 reviews Ray Gisson, Amanda Barlow Usborne Books, 1995 My 5-year-old LOVES this book! My daughter received this book (along with I Can Draw Animals also excellent!) for Christmas (which was 2 days before her 5th birthday) and she LOVES it!

These books are such a hit with my son who is now 3 and still loves them. In fact I have just recently bought more of them. We started with That's Not My Car.. and it seems have started an addiction. They are great fun and we take turns picking out which car (monster, puppy, train..etc) we like best. We also look for the mouse on each page. I think these are some of the best toddler books ...             That's Not My Teddy (Usborne Touchy-Feely Board Books)8 reviews Fiona Watt Usborne Books, 1999 Fuzzy, Fluffy, Squashy Fun Our twin babies are enjoying these "That's Not My..." books. These are more engaging than some of the other touchy-feely books we've got. Some books put materials in the pages for the babies to touch, just for the sake of having them there - and the words don't seem to "match up" with the thing we're feeling, or they are so stretched for material that it barely makes sense what we're feeling. ...             The Usborne Art Treasury5 reviews Rosie Dickins Usborne Books, 2007 Perfect mix of art and art history!

There is very little text on each page, just a title and lots of pictures. I bought this for my daughter because she likes fairies and search and find books keep my children busy for quite some time. The great thing about this book, though, is that it allows non-readers to work independently. The number is right next to the item they ...             That's Not My Mermaid (Touchy-Feely Board Books)5 reviews Fiona Watt Usborne Books, 2006 interactive books.... This is the third book of "That's Not My...." series that I have bought for gifts. I bought this title for my little sis and she LOVES it. I like how it is interactive so even if a little one can't read yet they can enjoy the book on their own.             The Great Animal Search (Great Searches - New Format)6 reviews Usborne Books, 2006 Excellent Book! These books are great! The entire concept of the hidden picture gets the kids really thinking. The adventure of learning that follows each picture just amazes me. The Where's Waldo books did not appeal to our family. We love the " I spy " books and those pictures are magnificent! These books however, the pictures do captivate you but there is a learning process with each picture. My ...             Art Ideas4 reviews Fiona Watt Usborne Books, 2000 must have for elementary teachers, parents and creative kids This colorful art book, is full of great ideas for elementary aged children.

Like all of the books in the "Puzzle" series this book on its first reading kept my children (6 and 4 years) occupied for an age. However what sets these books apart from other "look and find" puzzle books is their ability to be re-read again and again. Even though both my children know all the answers and where the "hidden" objects are, these books are read at several times a week at least! ...             That's Not My Train (Usborne Touchy-Feely Board Books)5 reviews Fiona Watt, Rachel Wells Usborne Books, 2000 Best baby book This is my son's favorite book. I started reading it to him when he was about 3 months old and he still loves it at 9 months. (When his toddler friends visit, they read right along too.)
