This is your nose. What happens when we press it BEEEEP! From fingers that tickle to bellies that need to be gobbled up, join in with each family as they play their own games to name different bits of the body. From Waterstones Prize-winning Sally Nicholls comes this interactive board book full of fun and play, illustrated with diverse young families by illustrator Gosia Herba.
"Sally Nicholls' humorous and informal text is well pitched for its target audience and she does a great job of cueing and supporting adults to read aloud with confidence" * Books for Keeps *
"Written with gentle humour and much warmth, this is infused with love for tiny people ... a lovely bedtime book" * BookTrust *
"A gorgeous celebration of families and an introduction to the body for very little children... The illustrations are something special too, expressive faces catching our attention, bold blocks of colour, making everything zing, the families depicted of every type and make up. What a way to teach children the names of their body parts, and to demonstrate family love" * LoveReading4Kids *
