The illustrator of this playful book is Jorge Martin. Originally from Spain, Jorge has lived in London, San Francisco, Mexico City and Hamburg. He's written a number of successful children's titles and even runs picture book courses.

1. The series covers familiar topics, so a young child can explore their own world with useful words.

2. Bright, playful illustrations allow a child to connect language and visuals, to enable them to remember and use the words more easily.

3. Simple questions and activities engage and encourage a child to use their observational or memory skills, and find the words to describe what they see.

4. Young children will enjoy spotting familiar things, and asking about unknown things, prompting and practising the skill of discussion.

5. Each book is split into groups of words, so grown-ups and young children are able to dip in and out, depending on whether they’re just reading for pleasure, are backing up an activity, or the child simply wants to move on to something else.
