The Book Fairy

About The Book Fairy

A career Children’s Librarian, the Book Fairy (a.k.a. kittenpie) has worked in library systems in both New York and Toronto. She’s thrilled to have another place to share the books she loves without creeping people out the way she does at the bookstore.

Board Books Go High Design

DwellStudio
is responsible for an awful lot of drooling - on the part of parents. Their linens for children have a great aesthetic that mixes cute and sleek perfectly to make them extremely covetable. Turning their attention to board books means you can take home a bit of high design for a much lower price!

Eat / Go
Audience: 0-2 years
Available: www.Chapters.Indigo.ca
Why they're sweet:
These super-simple board books are as graphic as it gets, with each item labeled and rendered in its most basic form, then highlighted with colour and glossy texture on a matte background. The foods in Eat highlight fruit, veggies, and a pretzel, while Go introduces a range of transportation from scooter and bus to helicopter and blimp, as well as lights and signs.



Touch & Feel Town
/ Touch & Feel Farm
Audience: 0-2 years
Available: www.Chapters.Indigo.ca
Why they're sweet:
Rhyming couplets encourage children to touch and see various things from around a town or a farm in these books, where textures are used to nice effect to elevate bold images. Extra short due to thicker pages that accommodate the textured features, these are a quick series of scenes, rather than an in-depth look, but the tactile experience is a winner with the very small.

The cherry on top:
We have some to give away! Win either both Eat and Go or Touch & Feel Town. Tell us in comments which you'd prefer, and why. Good luck!
