These beautiful new board books for toddlers make gorgeous use of the illustrations from Snuggle Pot and Cuddle Pie – the adorable gumnut babies that made Gibbs so famous.
In Colours,
soft pastel illustrations are a tender departure from the whack of the typical,
bright ‘colour’ book for little ones. Each page features a gumnut baby,
resplendent with a sweet colour representation – a gold sunrise glow, a silver
morning star, white flower meadow, green leaves rustle.
In 123,
we again meet our little gumnuts and their floral and faunal friends – and what
I love is the way the text is unexpectedly creative. No – there is not one
gumnut baby… there is one special hug and two friends together.
Really sweet, and ideal for little Aussie cuddlepies.
