Books & Store
We love books. And I think no baby is too young to be read to (or shown pictures to!). As our library of books explode, I would love to share our favourite ones with you!
You will find latest book reviews in our “review section“, as well as one usually accompanying our kids craft. I am passionate about reading with my children and I think it s never too young to start. We read many “age appropriate” books but often also older age group books – where we explore the pictures and skim over the story line – or poems where the children sit and listen to our voices (well, sometimes they sit and listen…).
In the meantime:
The easiest way to do this, is through an “Amazon Store” – then if you like something you can buy it straight away. I do get a small (!!) commission, which I will put towards prizes and competitions! Please do take a look and click on the below!!
Red Ted Arts Book Recommendations on Amazon
PS Some books may be cheaper if you “hunt” a little for them on ebay or specialist provider (e.g. Animal Lore & Disorder by J Riddell), I would love for you to enjoy these books as we do, without spending a fortune! They are listed through Amazon, as it is a convenient way to review.. Similarly, if they are out of stock, do look for them elsewhere!!!

Hi Mags,
Ben (16 months now) is loving the “magic” book you gave him, but since a week he’s got a new favourite: Good Night, Gorilla” by Peggy Rathmann. Here’s a brief teaser from the author’s website:
Good night, Gorilla…
Good night, Elephant…
It’s bedtime at the zoo, and all the animals are going to sleep.
Or are they?
Who’s that short furry guy with the mischievous grin?
Good night, Giraffe…
Good night, Hyena…
It’s beautifully drawn on 17 double page spreads and doesn’t need more copy then the ever repeating : “Good night…” But it even got us, the parents, hooked with its funny side stories that are quietly evolving through small details (the ballon goes travelling, the mouse with its banana, etc.).
I can even recommend it for older children 2-3 years, as they can tell the stories themselves and for a change “read” to Mummy and Daddy. Enjoy!
Fabulous! Will get a copy (had heard of it before) and will add your review to my books page!! thank you
