Baby Words is a bold, bright board book from Ladybird's best-selling Baby Touch series, perfect for little hands to explore. With a big touch-and-feel patch on every double page and bright, high-contrast colours, it helps to stimulate your baby's senses as well as gently helping to teach first key words such as mummy, daddy, dog and teddy.
Ladybird books are known and loved the world over. For millions of people, they bring back the golden days of childhood - learning to read, discovering the magic of books, and growing up.
The very first Ladybird book ever was produced by a jobbing printer called Wills & Hepworth during the First World War. The company, based in Loughborough, Leicestershire, began to publish 'pure and healthy literature' for children, registering the Ladybird logo in 1915. Despite the company's claims, however, those books would no longer be politically correct. In the ABC Picture Book, for example, A stood for armoured train!
The pictures are cute, but only 5 of the 10 pages contain touch-and-feel elements. It would make more sense to have "mum" and "dad" next to each other rather than several pages apart...
