Review of Usborne Lift and Look books

Posted on | October 18, 2007 | 2 Comments

Usborne Lift and Look books

Brilliant, robust, beautifully illustrated toddler board books that keep them interested with embedded flaps.

The 2 year old now has all but one of this range of board books. He absolutely loves them.

They are quite large, robust board books that can withstand being thrown about and chewed on by the baby. The range includes “Diggers”, “Emergency Vehicles”, “Farms” and “Trucks” and are wonderfully illustrated. Each page has lots happening to keep your child interested and also has a few embedded flaps which are easy to open for little fingers. These add more to the scene for the inquisitive toddler.

Each book has a different “thing to search for”. For example in the “Emergency Vehicles” book, all the flaps must be opened to find “Russ the rescue dog”. Each page just has a couple of sentences, one of which is a question such as ” Do you know where Russ is hiding?”

Fionn really loves them, his favourite books and they’ve been read again and again. His vocabulary has really come on as he points out different things on each page and he doesn’t seem have tired of them at all at this stage.

Would highly recommend. I have bought them in both Waterstones and Easons for around €10.
