Boys and girls touch a puppy’s thick and fluffy fur, his soft, silky ears, and his shiny rubber bone. The lively «Feels Real» board books for toddlers are filled with vivid color photos of friendly animals that children love to pet. But «Feels Real Books» are far more than ordinary picture books. Each of them has a different texture patch on every one of its two-page spreads—surfaces for very young boys and girls to touch. Different textures allow kids to experience the touch of animals’ fur or skin. When little hands have opportunity to touch and feel, the animals in these books suddenly come to life. (Ages 1–4)
