We picked up some cool new books last week
– from Usborne Publishing the “Great searches” series
The Big Bug Search
The Great Castle Search
The Great History Search
there are several more topics in the series too, dinosaurs, undersea etc.
They are basically picture books with little anecdotes and easy to read captions for Sam, however both my girls spend hours looking at the very detailed pictures and learn heaps in the process. They call them puzzle books, kind of like the “Where’s Wally” series with several things to find on each page.

We bought them from the Children’s Bookshop in Victoria street, I didn’t think they were too bad at under $20 each
cheers
