About this book
Time to get up! Pull back the covers and choose your clothes. Then it's time to have breakfast and brush your teeth with a bristly toothbrush. Zip up your coat, pull on your shiny boots, and you're ready to open the front door and set off on your adventure.
Getting ready for the day is made both fun and interactive in this touch-and-feel book. Carefully designed to ensure relevance and appeal to all children (including those who are visually impaired), shapes are meaningful and recognisable. So a teddy isn't just a patch of fur - it's bear-shaped and directly related to the text.
The book is also ideal for supporting communication - encouraging children to start learning how to get dressed and to discuss what the day might have in store. Activity can even include playing 'matching pairs' with socks - using eyes or fingers or both.
An irresistible tactile treat.
