All Kinds of Things

A large-format, vividly illustrated board book featuring stylish illustrations that immerse babies and toddlers in the world that surrounds them.

This is a whale. This is an anemone. This is a crab. They are all . . . sea creatures.

From author Frances Stickley, a trained literacy specialist and teacher, and award-winning illustrator Tim Hopgood, this beautifully designed and illustrated board book invites sharing and resharing with young readers as they explore different environments--from the ocean to the jungle to the city--and find the connections among groups of animals, plants, and objects. Encouraging toddlers' impulse to name and classify with stylish art, this is a book to read together again and again.
