Reviews
There’s something about this book that is unusual in a fulfilling sort of way. Not to mention, it’s relaxing! Which is why it’s perfect for a quiet story or bedtime book.
Kids Book Review
Riley has been repeatedly requesting it. We’ve both found a new favourite in PLAY. The perfect bedtime story!
Adventures of Sacakat
It is a book that will last the ages – fun to read to toddlers, but even more gorgeous when they can read it themselves. Play is a wonderful book that builds immense literacy skills in preschoolers, without them even realising they are learning.
NZ Booklovers
It’s a rad text for emergent readers and a great almost-intro to wordless wonders.
