Little Lamb for Little People

This book is very appropriate for the yougest pre-reader who has passed the oral stage. The tactile features of the book keep the little one's interest in the gentle story.

Sweet story and lovely fuzzy illustrations

This was one of my favorite books to read to my children when they were tiny. The illustrations are lovely, the story is simple and easy to follow, and nicely written. The children get to learn and make animal sounds as the little lamb meets different farm animals. The kicker for my children were the fuzzy parts on each page. They loved to touch the "wool" or "fur." This tactile element seemed to help them pay attention to the book when they were very young. I got the book as a gift, then bought other copies to give as gifts.

Fun touchable picture book about a baby lamb's adventures

Little Lamb is a nice large picture book for children with pretty watercolor illustrations. The story is a very common one; baby animal plays with others, wanders off while exploring and is suddenly lost. Kind of mediocre in my humble opinion.But you don't buy this book for the plot! No, the big draw for Little Lamb is the fascinating flocked pages that give a fun, fuzzy feel and matte appearance to only certain areas of the pictures. Every page has something to discover as kids have to touch all over to discover what parts are fuzzy and which are smooth. The lambs are always flocked of course, and other bugs, flowers and animals that should feel furry or soft to the touch are flocked, too. This will help to teach very little ones about the textures of nature.I thought this would be a great book to add to the Easter selection on our coffee table. It doesn't have anything to do with the holiday, but the lamb theme and the pastel colors fit in beautifully. Most importantly, our kids (2 and 5) enjoy it. I can recommend this to anybody whose tots like interactive picture books, such as The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle.-Andrea, aka Merribelle

An Easter book suggestion - could become a family classic!

I read this book in a mall book store today. It has delightful illustrations, in simple but bright colors. Not one of those overly hectic try to impress the art world books. The story is simple, with those repeat sentences that young listeners love to echo...or shout out. The animals have a fuzzy texture. I am ordering this for the grandchildren for Easter! And can't wait to read it to them.
