Soft felt flaps, one to a page, hide the community helpers a baby is being asked to find in Where's Mrs Doctor?
The Nosy Crow Felt Flaps series is built for hands too small for paper flaps: the felt is thick, forgiving and easy to lift without tearing. Ingela P Arrhenius illustrates in flat, high-contrast shapes that register clearly for developing eyesight, and the repeated question-and-reveal structure teaches a baby what to expect and when to expect it. A mirror on the final page closes the reading with the child's own face. Board construction throughout means the book survives being dropped, chewed and reopened daily.
Where it earns its place:
• Thick felt flaps that small hands can lift unaided
• Flat, high-contrast artwork by Ingela P Arrhenius
• A repeating question-and-reveal pattern babies learn quickly
• A mirror on the closing page for self-recognition
Made for babies and young toddlers and a reliable first-birthday present, this Nosy Crow board book is available from Boipoka.
