Customer Reviews

Sturdy Book

All the Maurice Pledger board books are extremely durable. The pictures and textures are attractive to babies and toddlers. These books really hold my daughter's attention.

Some of the best board books ever!

We purchased Maurice Pledger board books (Oscar Otter, Olive Owl and Billy Bunny) for our child at 6 months and at 2 years old they are still favorites. Here are just some of what we love about them. The illustrations are spectacular. They accurately represent the wildlife being depicted. There is a great variety of textures to appeal to a child's desire to touch and feel. Our child's favorite page is the "sticky" plant in Olivia Owl. They encourage interaction with questions like "How many shiny beetles has he found on the rose bush?" (from Billy Bunny) and requests like "Tickle her orange tummy." (from Oscar Otter). They are oversized for board books (approx. 9x11 inches), which our child loves. They give children nice big pictures to look at.

Beautiful illustrations with a learning bonus

My 14 month old daughter loves this book! She has owned it since she was 8 months old and has yet to tire of it. The illustrations are beautifully detailed with the bonus of teaching with fun textures on every page. My daughter has learned to identify texture as well as many animals and insects. I would highly recommend this book for early learning and fun!
