New Touch and Feel Alphabet Book and Number Book

Touch and feel books are a category of books for young children that have texture on each page, like actual fluffy fake fur a child can touch when being read a story about bunnies or a rough sandpaper texture they can feel when reading about the desert.  The texture is a wonderful way for children to stay engaged with the story. Two new board books, Montessori Number Work and Montessori Letter Work, both by Bobby and June George (E GEORGE) show that touch and feel books can also be a great way to help them learn numbers and letters. The books are simple: each letter or number is slightly textured for your child to trace over it with their finger. There are also simple and crisp-looking illustrations related to each letter or number to further help them learn.  As with all new books, if they are not on the new books shelf, they will be on their normal shelf location: E GEORGE (in the board books section).

Example inside page. The letters are textured!
