Hervé Tullet- children's book author and illustrator

Have you ever walked through the children's book section and there's a book that's just asking for you to pick it up? One that grabs your attention because it just looks cool? I don't know about you, but the phrase "don't judge a book by it's cover," doesn't apply to children's books?

When a book is titled Press Here, do you just leave it sitting there? Of course not, you pick it up and interact with it. After thumbing through it's pages my little one and I knew it was a great book to check out. Isn't it ingenious to create a book that is used as an object to play with?

Great books welcome entertaining art lessons for every age. When we got home from the library we read the book and then got out our do-a-dots stampers to create our book of press here dots. Many supplies work well with this interactive game book. Try some circle stickers, circle shaped foam brushes, eraser stamps, thumbprints, q-tips and more!

 

Our love for Press Here led me to do some research on the author/illustrator, and low and behold, there are over 50 fabulous books that Hervé Tullet has created! He really has a knack for getting the readers participation. Each one is just as good or better than the next!
