Book of the Week: Kimonos

October 18, 2011

I love this adorable new book, Kimonos, created by from Annalore Parot. It’s informative, fun to look at and has lots of interactive touches like diecuts, fold-outs and lift-the-flaps. There’s even a real cloth “tag” sewn into the side.

If you have kids that are into cute, cute, cute, but you’re craving a break from all things pink and barbie, this book is perfect!

Share and Enjoy:

My daughter is only 6 months. But I’m already furiously creating a list of books and story prints in English and Spanish and this one sounds like it could make that list. I loved the one you put together in babble. Thanks!

I would love to collaborate on a list of good (classy and well designed!) Spanish English children’s books with you for my blog. I have been researching and find that it is difficult to find great bilingual books out there that are not translations of the “classics”. Let me know if you are interested!

I am loving the look of this book! What a great recommendation, Gabby. I can totally imagine kids (and the young at heart!) poring over the visual variety … awesome! I’m off to pick up a copy ASAP.
