Books_Little_tots_0412_On_my_pottyBy Leslie Patricelli

 

'When you've got to go, you've got to go! But where?' This charming board book chronicles the age-old toddler (and parent) dilemma in a witty manner. But what makes it stand out is the stellar artwork in lush, saturated colours: magenta, bold and ruby.

Then, some nocturnal adventures with woolly mammoths, who do appreciate talent, reassure him. Words and pictures are splendidly matched, investing Baby with humour and individuality. A delight for all budding artists – and everyone else too!

Books_Little_tots_0711_The_sleep_sheepBy Anna McQuinn

Illustrated by Hannah Shaw

A nice twist on counting sheep, this is great fun, with delightful illustrations that mirror the bunt of wakefulness that comes with bedtime. Sylvie finds the huge number of sheep she has conjured up just as 'exasperating' as her mother found her – they won't stay still enough for her to count – until they fall asleep in the sun after a day at the beach. A perfect bedtime story.

Books_Little_tots_0511_Not_meBy Nicola Killen

Paint on the wall, peas in the hall…the house is in total chaos. Who could the culprit(s) be? With a simple question-and-answer structure, this debut picture book ticks a lot of boxes: a clear text that allows for rhythm and rhyme, illustrations that are both bright and soft, a real interaction between word and image, and plenty of clues and surprises for the attentive sleuth. One to read and reread.
