Product Description
by Caryad (Author)
In these one-of-a-kind picture books, every page is bursting with life--and tons to discover! Children as young as age 2 have a blast pointing out recognizable things, while older kids can follow the star characters from page to page, telling their stories along the way.
How? Wimmelbooks are virtually instruction-free, inviting kids to make their own way through the busy Wimmelworld they encounter, and to craft their own stories. First, you're introduced to a unique cast of characters who are hidden in plain sight on the pages that follow. As you seek them out, each character's storyline unfolds, but it's up to kids to interpret the scenes and create stories they think fit. It's hours upon hours of fun--and an effortless introduction to literacy to boot.
My Big Wimmelbook--My Busy Day invites readers to join a lively group of kids, families, friends, and workers as they go about their normal daily routines. From starting with a healthy breakfast to an exciting day at school, swinging in the park, and more, readers will have a blast recognizing their own daily lives reflected in the many activities packed into this single bustling day in Wimmeltown.
About Wimmelbooks
Wimmelbooks originated in Germany decades ago and have become a worldwide sensation with children (and adults!) everywhere. My Big Wimmelbooks is the first-ever Wimmelbook series to feature Wimmelbooks as Wimmelbooks in English. They've been praised as "lively . . . and abounding with humor and detail" (WSJ), likely to "make any parent's heart sing." (NYT)
