About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is deeply attached to a specific comfort object or shows the first signs of expansive, pretend play. It is a perfect choice for toddlers who view their favorite plush toy as a real partner in crime and a source of constant security. This photo-illustrated board book blends reality and imagination by featuring a diverse group of preschoolers interacting with a plush Curious George doll. Through whimsical doodles superimposed on real photography, the book explores how everyday environments are transformed by a child's creative lens. It is a gentle, affirming celebration of early friendship and the magical way children perceive the world around them.
What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
None. This is a purely secular, joyful exploration of play and childhood imagination.
Ideal Reader
A two-year-old who has just begun to carry a 'lovey' everywhere and is starting to engage in symbolic play (e.g., pretending a block is a phone or a plush toy is a hungry baby).
Parent Prep
No prep needed. This book can be read cold and is designed for interactive pointing and naming of objects. A parent might reach for this after watching their child have a full conversation with a stuffed animal or seeing their child use an object for something other than its intended purpose.
