Book Envy: Modern Busy Book

Around the World With Mouk: a sticker adventure
by Marc Boutavant

Another great illustrated children's book. So much great detail on each page. It seems to be the modern answer to all the Busytown books, which my little guy can spend so much time 'reading'. I loved books like this as a kid, always uncovering new happenings in every corner of each page. Boutavant's bright characters are so cute and quirky. And the static stickers are a huge bonus. Who wouldn't love placing new characters in different lands?! Another book win in our house!

Press Here by Herve Tullet

Love! This! Book!! My husband just bought it for our little guy and I can't believe how much he likes it. The idea is so simple and brilliant. Tullet guides the reader to touch, shake and blow on each page to change the story. It's like an iPhone app without any coding. The design is minimal but effective. I just love how much L giggles everytime he 'makes' the shapes change with every turn of the page. It's worth buying just to hear that.
