About the Author

Young, dynamic illustrator ANNA KOEVECSES's work marries contempory minimalism with an appealing retro-modern illustration style. Born in Hungary, she lives and works in Cyprus.

Review

"The retro-style illustrations in this book are what first caught my eye... I love books like this" * Scary Mommy * "A visual encyclopedia of things to spot and say with a difference, the pictures are strong, bold and dominate the page, the labels are clear and defined but it is not just about the learning, it comes with a game too, a little mouse to spot on every page! Compulsive and instructional fun, minimal and modern." "To bill this book as a ` vocabulary builder' is to woefully underplay its hand. Study hard and this book will see you safely through nursery and in to reception as an assured four year old who can hold their own in the cut and thrust of classroom debate... the book is huggable, sniffable and strokable. The bright, digitally created images are easy on the eye, with kid and parent appeal and an air of comforting naivity. The clear font is helpful for early readers."
