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--a blue tricycle, a hungry dog, a piggyback ride--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--A Day at School depicts an average day in the classroom for your typical early learner. From drop- off to recess to nap time--and, of course, learning everything from counting to spelling and more--every aspect of a typical school day is here, with a cast of unique and interesting kiddo characters (just like readers themselves!) to find and follow throughout their day.
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)
