My Favorite Books - Feed Matisse's Fish

Both of my children (and their friends) love Feed Matisse's Fish. The touch-and-feel elements are all well done and narrative is simple and charming. There are just enough words per page to keep the narrative consistent and helpful, but not so much as to bore kids (or adults).

Note, that the books says this is for children 3+ because small parts can potentially detach and be a choking hazard, but the content is great for kids 12m+ (supervised of course).

Feed Matisse's Fish and Touch the Art: Brush Mona Lisa's Hair are both excellent books from this series. Touch the Art: Make Van Gogh's Bed is also pretty good (although not quite as good as the other two).  Touch the Art: Tickle Tut's Toes is particularly weak in terms of both content and narrative.


This will also go on my eventual list of drool-proof books.  The high-gloss board book pages are nicely drool resistant.
