Customer Reviews

Very cute and educational

My daughter loves to touch the pages, turn them and bite on them.

Fuzzy, Fluffy, Squashy Fun

Our twin babies are enjoying these "That's Not My..." books. These are more engaging than some of the other touchy-feely books we've got. Some books put materials in the pages for the babies to touch, just for the sake of having them there - and the words don't seem to "match up" with the thing we're feeling, or they are so stretched for material that it barely makes sense what we're feeling. Many of the "touchy-feely" books simply lack story content. That's not true of these Usborne touchy-feelies. The text is simple and makes sense to toddlers, and gives them a wider vocabulary of adjectives -- especially "tactile" words, like "fuzzy," "fluffy," "shiny," "hairy," and even (in "That's Not My Teddy"), "squashy!" For bigger babies (my babies are just one year old), it's neat to notice a cute little mouse who shows up on every page. That's one thing I love about Usborne baby books - even when the babies are tired of looking at the main story, there's always the cute little mouse to notice and talk about!

Good story

This book does not only things too feel and touch - it has a very good story too. You get to follow the white mouse as it is looking for its teddy. My 19 months old likes to look in it and my 5½ years old reads it.

What a fun book for a toddler

This is a great book. Each page has a different teddy bear that a child can touch, for example, the nose is soft or the ears are fuzzy. It is a simple book; each page has a reason why the teddy you are looking at is not the right bear. Finally the last teddy bear is the right teddy bear. My 2-year-old LOVES this book she has memorized it and reads it with me while she touches the pages. When we get to the last teddy she is so delighted to have found the right teddy. I highly recommend this fun book.

Simply Captivating

As the mother of an infant I bought this for my son along with numerous other books. This book maintains his attention and he enjoys browsing through it again and again. The colorful pages and fabrics make the book captivating for him! I own at least 100 books for him, but this is one of his favorites! It is great for visual imput, tactile/sensory imput, and early literacy skills.
