Carla Coneja

This beautifully illustrated, oversize touch-and-feel board book encourages young children to sample a pleasant variety of textures, from the smooth fur of a rabbit to the sparkly shell of a bug. In making this tactile connection, kids learn to identify the animals and insects rendered in Pledger's realistic style. Simple, evocative text, such as "How many shiny beetles has he found on the rose bush?", complements the images and textures.Pledger, Maurice is the author of 'Carla Coneja' with ISBN 9789707180390 and ISBN 9707180390.
