Stick Man’s First Words

Full of chunky tabs and Axel’s bright pictures, this is lovely beyond words. Pssst: Santa might even drop by! Each time you pull a tab in this book of first words, you’ll find another thing to learn. Counting, colours, opposites. Things to name and spot. Even animal sounds to make. Count bees and toadstools. Find shells on the beach. Play in the snow. Learn words to name the things you see. You’ll go all the way from summer to winter – and enjoy a Christmas surprise!
