    5 Stars P-p-p-pick up a penguin 16/12/2011
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Lots of textures to explore, lovely pictures, Freddy loves it

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Can become mind-numbing for parents after the 20th read through

    As a real bookworm myself, I’ve tried to pass on my love of the written word to 20 month old Freddy and as well as toys have bought him many books for birthdays, Christmas or no real at all. One of the books I bought for Freddy as a stocking filler last Christmas is “That’s Not My Penguin”, a touchy-feely board book written by Fiona Watt, illustrated by Rachel Wells and published by Usborne. There are countless titles in this range covering many everyday (and not so everyday) topics including trains, teddies and cars, all of which follow the same format. These board books are brilliant for ... more

    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Great introduction to textures, and introduction to books in general

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Steep at full price, a little boring for parents after a while

    My son got this book as a christmas present quite a few years ago, when he was only a month old. He now has quite a few of this style of book and has really enjoyed them all. That's not my penguin, is one in a huge range of Usborne 'That's not my' books, by Fiona Watt, illustrated by Rachel Wells. These books are touchy feely books, aimed at very young children. The books in the range cover a range of things, from toys, animals, vehicles and fantasy charcters. The books all follow the same style/layout. This book, like all Thats not my books, is a board book, with a slightly thicker front ... more

    5 Stars Now where did I leave that penguin? 06/12/2011
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Lovely illustrations and textures, a hit with little ones!

    Disadvantages Disadvantages None at all

    Where IS that pesky penguin? This is one of several books we own in this lovely, popular series of children's books. For anyone not familiar with the books, we follow the adventures of a little mouse as he looks for a certain item that belongs to him, rejecting the wrong ones along the way by saying: “That's not my xxx!” and telling us which characteristics make it not quite what he is looking for. Careless mouse There are many books in the range, from That's Not My Tractor and That's Not My Dolly, to That's Not My Kitten and That's Not My Teddy, which all involve the little mouse losing ... more
