This tactile early-learning playbook is the perfect introduction to colours, shapes, numbers, animals and actions and features Beatrix Potter's best-loved characters. Ideal for older babies and toddlers, this bright, sturdy board book has textures to explore on every page and is perfect for sharing and encouraging interactive play. Beatrix Potter is one of the world's best-loved children's authors of all time. From her first book, The Tale of Peter Rabbit (1902) she went on to create a series of stories based around animal characters including Mrs Tiggy-winkle, Mr Jeremy Fisher and Tom Kitten. Her humorous, lively tales and beautiful illustrations have become a natural part of childhood. A source of inspiration was the Lake District where she lived for the last thirty years of her life as a farmer and conservationist.
