I Really Want to See You Grandma
Yumi and her grandmother have the same great idea: They want to see each other. So they each head out to do just that, only to completely miss each other along the way! No problem they'll just head back home and wait for the other to return. The trouble is that they have the same great idea again resulting in the ultimate missed connection! Will this duo ever find each other?
My Friends
A little girl learns to walk, climb, and study the earth from her friends, most of whom are animals.
Using simple words and bright illustrations, author-illustrator Taro Gomi shows children that sometimes knowledge can come from all kinds of friends.
Peekaboo
It's more than a book - it's a mask! Every spread includes a funny fact about featured creatures, from bears to robots. Young readers will squeal in surprise to find that when this board book is opened, the eye-sized die-cuts allow each spread to become a mask! Kids will have a blast posing as a fly-eating frog or a mouse-chasing cat. Sure to be a hit during both story time and playtime!
Run, Run, Run!
It's time to run a race like no other! Finish line? Winning? None of that matters here. Exploring is the goal! In this colorful board book by bestselling author-illustrator Taro Gomi, follow the racer as he runs far past the finish line and through fields, a farm, a forest, and more. Toddlers will delight in turning the pages to find out where he will run, run, run to next!
Wiggle
It's more than a book - it's a game! Every spread is missing a key element of a featured animal - from an elephant's trunk to a penguin's beak, these creatures are incomplete. And it's up to young readers to help them out! Kids can finish the illustration by wiggling their fingers through suitably placed die-cuts. Children are sure to giggle at the silliness of turning their fingers into elephant trunks and chameleon tongues-and learn a bit about animal features on the way!
