Spot is walking in the garden and meeting lots of new friends along the way - including a hen, a woodpecker and a busy bee! What else will he see? With fun flaps to develop fine motor skills and a story that encourages curiosity and exploration, this classic story is perfect for early learning and play. Eric Hill's Where's Spot was the first ever lift-the-flap book - and his ground-breaking innovation continues to delight and surprise readers with interactive fun. Spot has now been a trusted character in early learning for over 40 years, selling over 65 million books worldwide. Author descriptionEric Hill (1927-2014) started his artistic career as an art studio messenger and from there went on to become a cartoonist and eventually an art director at a leading advertising agency. In 1978 Eric made up a story about a small puppy to read to his son at bedtime and Spot was born. The success of his first bestselling lift-the-flap classic Where's Spot? in 1980 convinced him to become a full-time author, and his Spot books have been enjoyed by children around the world ever since. In 2008 he was awarded an OBE for services to children's literacy. |
