Let little ones explore the natural world around them with two bold and beautiful pre-school board books by much-loved children's illustrator and author Jane Cabrera. In Rainbow, the book's clever die-cut form reflects the shape of a rainbow with each arch-shaped page revealing a new colour and featuring bold, colourful creatures. Little ones can explore the world of colour as they race along with a violet coloured butterfly, head into the indigo ocean with a giant whale, look out for a green crocodile or join a red squirrel and his ladybird friends. By following the rainbow, they discover a whole world of colour... In Opposites, Cabrera presents an enchanting lift-the-flap 'opposites' board book with a difference as the pages deliver a surprise under each flap. From a fast-running rabbit and a tiny mouse sailing the ocean to a thrilling double-surprise flap on the last page, this is a book to both educate and delight. Big or small, tall or short, toddlers will love trying to guess who is under each flap as they explore the concept of opposites and discover a world of fun and amazing creatures. The exciting and pro-active format of these two shiny, stylish books, and Cabrera's charming, painterly trademark illustrations, make them irresistible to babies and young children. * Lancashire Evening Post * I really like the style of this sturdy board book, which is full surprises. On each page and spread two opposites are represented in a different and engaging way. For "tall-short" a big dog is looking down at a bone, which is actually a flap, under which is a small dog. This makes the book both interactive and interesting. The illustrations are attractive and colourful, with lots of little details. * Juno Magazine * Opposites is just as cute as Jane Cabrera's Rainbow but with a slight difference. This sweet board book has lift the flaps for children to see the opposite. I believe by allowing children to interact with the pages helps them take it in and have an early understanding of opposites or can be a good starting point. Each page has different shaped flaps and some pages offer more than one. With a variety of illustrated backgrounds and animals included, there's some good talking points for adults and children to discuss. But its definitely another lovely board book for little ones to explore. * The Bookworm Baby * An opposites board book with a difference, with surprises under each flap.
