Animal Kisses: A Touch and Feel Book (Red wagon books)

Best books for smaller babies who are starting to explore touching things.My baby cries if I try to read something with nothing for her to interact with.

Animal Kisses is a cute little touch and feel book that will bring enjoyment to a variety of ages. Each 2-page layout features a different type of colorfully illustrated animal, and part of each animal is textured for the reader to feel. For example, the cat page asks "Do you like scratchy cat kisses?," and the cat's tongue is a sandpaper-like material. Other textures include smooth, sticky, velvety, and even squeaky for the pig (although, like other reviewers have said, you do have to press the pig's nose just right in order to get it to squeak). My 3-year old niece loved reading the book and was able to tell me which kisses were her favorites, and even my 1-year old niece enjoyed touching the pages. This is a fun, cute little book that is appropriate for both younger and older toddlers; highly recommended!

This is a really short book but it's cute. I decided to buy this book because it seemed like it had a lot of textures for my son to explore. Each page does have a texture of animal kiss, but very little text and the squeaker on the pig page is a bit hard for my son to squeak and his attempts to do it himself have ripped the book a little. But overall I think this is a good book to begin teaching kids about animals and textures.

Have bought it twice I love it so much! Perfect for babies and toddlers

Really great textures and high contrast pictures. The pages are a little flimsy so I’m not sure how long it’ll last but my 9 month old loves it. Only a few pages long but still a good buy.
