Illustrated by Rachel Wells.
Bright colours and feely textures are irresistible to babies, while turning the pages provides a valuable introduction to the concept of a "book". This book has a bumpy trail to follow, and is full of surprises with textured patches, scrunchy-sounding leaves, flaps to peep behind and rattle noises.
The amazingly successful Bookstart project has shown that sharing books with even young babies helps them when they go to school.
