Children will love it! * A Time Out Kid's Book of the Week *
A wonderfully simple sight and sounds book perfect for growing minds in a multi-ethnic city like LondonThe sound of a bicycle bell can be experienced in Noisy Town, alongside sounds belonging to fire engines, cars and jackhammers, and illustrations depicting a variety of characters from a range of backgrounds. * London Cyclist *
My lot just love the alternative to Usborne's famous yellow rubber duck house-style, where they use Fimo models to depict a 3D world with an illustrative style instead. * Families Magazine *
Noisy Town has lots of sounds for toddlers. From chattering people to chiming clocks and police sirens, all the noises of a busy town centre are here. * Sunday Express 'S' Magazine *
There are certain presents that most parents think twice about giving their offspring: chemistry sets, cuddly toys that 'talk', and glittery hair colour that isn't quite as temporary as it says on the can. The reasons are obvious. But child-free friends and godparents who need have no fear of tit-for-tat gift-giving generally have no such qualms – this board book from Usborne is for them. Push the buttons and you are rewarded by the sound of a digger, a fire engine, a bicycle bell, a noisy café and so on. It's quite irritating the first time round and it gets worse. But here's the thing: children will love it – and they'll love you, too. And eventually you'll go home and the long-suffering parents can hide the thing. * Time Out Kid's Book of the Week April 2008 *
Felicity has worked for Usborne for over 30 years and has written and edited hundreds of titles, from books on tractors to genetics, from Shakespeare to mental health, and plenty of sparkly unicorns. Felicity is an expert in making tricky topics friendly and accessible to young children and recently has been writing books that celebrate feelings, friendship, empathy, families, and diversity. When she's not writing or researching very specific details on dinosaurs, Felicity can be found tramping through fields and forests foraging for food or just curled up with a bag of Twiglets, a couple of cats and a crossword.
