Description

Discover your colours in an adventure through the garden, meeting bugs, leaves and blooms along the way. This Kat Macleod Early Learner explores a new colour on every page, through the delights of a home garden. Australian artist Kat Macleod brings her signature design and illustration style to this series of board books for babies and toddlers. Her Early Learner series has playful themes, simple narratives, minimal text and bright illustrations to engage young readers and to delight parents and carers. These chunky little books are beautiful and practical, sturdy enough for small, inquisitive hands, and the perfect gift for little ones. 'I've always been passionate about encouraging creativity and imaginative play with my sons, and am endlessly inspired by their art and the way they see the world,' explains Kat. 'I'm thrilled to imagine children absorbed in my colourful illustrations while beginning their learning journey.'
