Fiona Watt and Rachel Wells, That’s not my rocket…, Usborne Books, May 2023, 10 pp., RRP $23.50 (board), ISBN 9781474996037
The latest book in this much loved series takes readers on a journey into space!
Usborne touchy-feely books are a must read with young children. They encourage interaction with text, colour, and shape. They also introduce connection between words and the touch and feel labels, which is fantastic for building vocabulary.
The repetitive format of these books provides a sense of theme or focus while also creating a familiar rhythm for children to connect with and even participate in.
I love the addition of the little mouse character on each page for readers to recognise and identify.
