Baby Basics(TM) books encourage tactile exploration, support hand-eye coordination, and help develop strong cognitive skills. That mission builds on the findings of experts that interactive books featuring high-contrast visuals stimulate babies' brain development, as well as keep them engaged and entertained. Xavier Deneux's graphic eye-catching illustrations of familiar backyard animals and the embossed images invite the youngest readers to explore through seeing and touching, while developing their language skills. What a wonderful gift for baby!
