Description
This soft cloth baby book opens onto a sunny garden, with two grey mice sharing a picnic on a red and white checked cloth at its heart. The pages are 100% cotton, printed in bright leafy greens, sky blue, red and sunshine yellow, with In My Garden across the cover in big friendly letters and The End on the last page. Along the way there is a squirrel peeping out of its tree, a robin and a grey bird among the leaves, a little snail, a ladybird and a string of flower bunting. The book measures 20cm long and 18cm wide and is only 0.3cm deep, and its edges are pinked in a neat zigzag.
Being cloth, it is soft, light and easy to tuck into the changing bag or the pram for trips out, then back onto the nursery shelf at home. It is a toy as much as a book, made for sharing together: point out the snail, count the round red fruit in the bowl, spot the ladybird hiding in the grass and make up what the two mice are chatting about. The simple, bold pictures and big lettering make it a cheerful choice for those first story times on a lap.
It arrives in a printed paperboard presentation box in pale blue, with a curved cut-out window on the front that frames one of the picnicking mice, and My first book written in white script over the title. The fabric is hand wash only, so when it needs freshening, wash it gently by hand in cool soapy water and leave it to dry flat. Kept in its box, it is ready to give straight away, and we think it makes a charming first book to start a little library.
