Jane Foster is a designer and illustrator w hose w ork in screen printing has gained her w ide acclaim. Her style is heavily influenced by Scandinavian trends w ith a nod to the 1950s and 60s.

Her range of stylish designs is much more than that though and you can accessorise your home w ith ceramics, glassw are and kitchen textiles as w ell.

I love Jane Foster's designs and when I saw that she had released a new board book I couldn't wait to see it. This is such a wonderful first word primer with lots of wonderful springtime flora and fauna. It's nice to have a book in our collection that celebrates more than just Easter time as Spring is a wonderful season full of discovery and new beginnings, not just chocolate eggs. Sharing vocabulary such as blossom, tulips, lamb, chicks, rainbow and bumblebees you can talk to your little one about how the world is changing in this new season. It would be a great one to pop in the buggy or a changing bag so you can spot these things whilst out and about. As I say the real charm of these books is in the fantastic artwork. The lines are bold and thick and the colours bright and cheerful making them great first books for babies developing their eyesight as well as slightly older toddlers who will love making connections to the real world. A lovely book (and not just for Easter!). * Book Bairn *
