'The last one is a sleep button. Good night, children. More
confirmation that children's book creators are unsung geniuses.'
New York Times 'Bouncy and mischievous' Guardian, Children's Books
of the Year Here's a button. I wonder what happens when you press
it? From a singing button to a tickle button, from a rude sound
button to a mysterious white button, there's only one way to find
out what they do! A remarkable adventure powered purely by
imagination, where the sounds, songs and play are completely up to
you and whoever you're sharing this wonderful book with.
Reminiscent of picture book legend Herve Tullet's Press Here, this
chunky board book will take you on a magical journey of colour,
imagination, and play with a wind-down bedtime ending (unless
you're asked to read it again).
The Level 3 books are designed to build on Levels 1 and 2 whilst
introducing new consonant blends and digraphs. Additionally, the
stories have been written to encourage inferencing and problem solving
through the stories and images to enhance the reader’s skills and fun!

Little gods, big personalities! This brand-new series follows little versions of the Greek gods who are at a camp to learn how to control their powers and use them properly--as well as learn to get along with one another.
Zeus is living with his parents, Kronos and Rhea, and he's starting to show his abilities, but his lightning is out of control! Every time he sneezes or gets mad, or is even just plain bored, his lightning shoots out. He tries to keep it under wraps most of the time, but he can't help it, and it causes such a ruckus that his parents decide that it's time he learns to properly use his powers.
So they send him to Eureka, a camp where little gods learn to use and control their supernatural abilities. He's excited to be able to learn to use his powers here, but he's also nervous about going and meeting all the other gods. Apollo and Ares in particular seem very strong (and they let him know it), but he finds friends in the calm and wise Athena and the wisecracking Hermes. But after some trouble with classes, he starts to get discouraged. Will he be able to control his powers with the help of his friends?
"Look at those feet! Aren't they sweet?" Yes--when they're walking,
standing, leaping and landing. And when they're kicking balls or
leaves. But not when they're kicking people!
In simple words and charming full-color illustrations, this book
helps little ones learn to use their feet for fun, not in anger or
frustration. It also includes tips for parents and caregivers on
how to help toddlers be sweet with their feet.
