Books Always Everywhere
By S Riaz
This is a nice, simple introduction to the joys of reading for the very young. The text is extremely simple, "Book Park" (with a picture of a toddler reading on a swing), "Book Shop" (with a child pressing her face to a shop window) etc. The illustrations are joyful and can lead to lots of discussion, but the text itself will probably appeal best to toddlers. However, if you want to encourage children to love books and treat them in the same way they do toys - to be loved and used everywhere - then you will like this. There is also a code in the inside cover of the book which can apparently be scanned into your smartphone for a free audio reading of the book, although, personally I think the best thing about this book would be to talk to your little one and discuss the lovely illustrations, which bring the text to life.

By Denis Vukosav
‘Books Always Everywhere’ written and illustrated by Jane Blatt is a work that celebrates books, teaching the importance and beauty of reading, telling about the magical world of books from which once you get in there would be no return.Speaking about the books in every shape and size, of every genre, from humorous to scary or even used as a seat or as a hat, these wonderful things can be used everywhere and by everyone.‘Books Always Everywhere’ is mostly made for younger readers from 3 to 5 years introducing simple rhyming text, nice colorful illustrations, clues about books that can be discussed with children while and after reading it and, as a nice add-on, a cute mouse that follows young reader on each book page.Although the book is advertised for children up to the age of seven years, children older than 5 might be a little disappointed because for them the book will seem too easy, therefore uninteresting.So if you are looking for a book with which your child will be introduced into beautiful world of books, look no further because Jane Blatt with ‘Books Always Everywhere’ made exactly such a book.

A celebration of books!
By Sara
BOOKS ALWAYS EVERYWHERE is an adorable read aloud that celebrates books! In every size and shape, from funny to scary, used as a seat, or used as a hat, books are for everyone and anytime. The text in this one is simple and sparse, making it great for littles ones with short attention spans. Great for book lovers young and old!
