Dinoblock
The highly anticipated follow-up to Alphablock and Countablock, with pages shaped like dinosaurs!
Following in the footsteps of the groundbreaking Alphablock and Countablock, Dinoblock features thick pages cut into the shapes of dinosaurs! Readers will be introduced to more than 20 different kinds of dinos via die-cuts of their unique silhouettes and the illuminating comparisons to familiar things from a young child's world. I stretch high like the ladder on a fire truck. I am a Brachiosaurus.
As children touch the pages, they have a chance to guess the dinosaur and appreciate the uniqueness of its silhouette. A final gatefold delivers a roundup of all the dinos included.
This hands-on approach, delivered in colourful pages by hip British design team Peskimo, makes for an immersive, age-appropriate introduction to a favourite topic of childhood.
