A soft, fuzzy, yellow chick makes the cover of this cloth book quite appealing. When you pull the Velcro strap it opens the book up to a variety of other animals—rooster, duck, sheep, horse, cow, goat, pig and goose. A real farm menagerie, which is recapped on the back cover. Each page in the book offers something to touch such as the rooster's comb, sheep's wool and goat's horns. The text provides information about the animal. Young kids will lean the names as well as salient facts about each creature. Fluffy Chick and Friends is a cut above many other cloth books and the surface is even washable. 2005, Piddy Books/St. Martin's Press, Ages 3 mo. to 3.

Since then, over 30 million copies of Roger's 200 plus books have sold worldwide, with five of his books—My Big Animal, My Big Truck, Happy Baby Words, Happy Baby Colors and Puppy and Friends—each selling over one million copies. He is also the author of Big Board First 100 Words; Big Board Books Colors, ABC, Numbers; and Bright Baby Noisy Monsters. His creativity has been recognized with numerous industry awards.
