Picture This: Peek Through Jobs We Do and Around Town


These peek-through board books are perfect for little book fans. Join Roxy and Dusty as they travel around their town, meeting lots of interesting people along the way. 

Dusty the dog is bored of staying inside, so spends the day visiting different shops. At the bottom of each page is a question which encourages children to guess where Dusty might go next. Children can then peek through a large square flap in the middle of the page to find out if they were right. Each shop is packed with detail, and I think the sweet shop page will prove particularly popular! The gentle rhyming words give a nice insight into what each shop is used for, meaning that this board book really is packed with information, but still so much fun to read!

Roxy the rat's journey around town introduces her to lots of interesting people - from detectives to shop owners, everyone is very busy! As with Around Town, there is a question at the bottom of each page to get children thinking about what different jobs involve. The artwork is bright and cheerful, with plenty to explore on each page while listening to the rhyming job descriptions. 


Thank you Little Tiger for sending me copies of these lovely board books for review
