I received a few books from Raincoast Books recently to review and was completely enamoured by this simple yet powerful little book by Paris-based author/illustrator, Hervé Tullet . Called PRESS HERE, the book asks the reader to poke it, shake it, and even blow along it's edges, and in turn each page transforms the scattering of coloured dots into a fun visual narrative. Simple enough to captivate a two-year old, yet brilliant enough to garner the attention of an adult, this book will bring some magic into anyone's day who reads it. Available through Amazon.ca in Canada and in the U.S. through and Chronicle Books.
