I don't know which came first, but this is pretty much the same book as 'That's not my Bear', only girly. This is a good book to get children interested and interacting with books, engaging in the words being said and looking at the pictures. Book and Plush ISBN 10: 1474989098 EAN: 9781474989091 Author: Watt, Fiona Publisher: Usborne Publishing Ltd Publication year: 2020 Binding: Mixed media product Dimensions: mm Weight: 402 grams Pages: 10 pages, full colour throughout Country of origin: United Kingdom Readership: This charming gift set includes That"s not my fairy.

My gripe with this one is that three of the six textures are way too similar-shiny, sparkly, and smooth (which is a shiny silver material). My toddler loves it and she especially loves to touch the wings on the second fairy, which are like a soft fur. Every page has a part of the fairy that is made using different materials, allowing children to touch. There are five fairies to meet in the book, with shiny dresses, sparkly wands and fluffy wings, and children can cuddle the plush fairy as they listen to the book being read.

It could be used in an early years setting to explore the senses and to associate describing words with the texture. The premise behind this work is a kid's touch-and-feel book which involves outfits that fairies where and wands, etc. She then taught seven, eight, and nine year olds for five years; three years at a state school in Sevenoaks in Kent, and two years at The British School in the Netherlands in The Hague. She started working at Usborne in 1989 and has written and edited hundreds of books including baby and novelty, sticker, art and craft, cookery, science and activity books.

She likes to “read” them to her dolls and stuffed animals since the repetition makes it very easy to memorize. Having joined Usborne in 1989, Fiona became an editorial director in 2003, largely responsible for writing baby and novelty books, as well as art and activity titles.She used to enjoy finishing the sentences for me as her vocabulary started to expand and I had read it to her so many times that she knew it all by heart. My daughter loved feeling the different textures throughout, but was particularly enchanted by the shiny bits on all of the pages. A lovely book which gives babies and toddlers the opportunity to touch different textures - fluffy, bumpy, shiny, frizzy.
