Tails

by Matthew Van Fleet

Tails Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Tails are irresistible to toddlers--though most are beyond the reach of small hands. But now there's reason for tail fans everywhere to rejoice: a colorful collection of tails created just for those eager toddlers to tug, pat, and even scratch and sniff!

Matthew Van Fleet's lovable menagerie features furry tails, spiny tails, shiny tails, and tails that wag--all designed to inspire and withstand hours of interactive play. While pulling tabs and opening gatefolds, those tail tuggers can also learn to count from one to ten. Tails is so full of action and fun that even parents will revel in repeated readings.

Review:

Review:

"Youngsters will hardly realize how much they're learning in this entertaining and eye-catching caper." Publishers Weekly

Synopsis:

The creator of Fuzzy Yellow Ducklings presents a colorful collection of animal tails on this pull-tab book made just for toddlers to tug, pat, and even scratch as they learn how to count from one to ten. Full color.

This is such a neat, interactive book. Filled with textures that kids love to touch, along with some moveable parts, and a large flip out page with all the animals. Nice to read aloud - really grabs their attention.
