Very exciting if you're 1
Simple touchy feely book, with big thick board pages and a different texture on each double page and the cover. Each page has a different bear on it (2 pandas, a koala on the cover, a polar bear, honey bear and grizzly) as well as the little mouse to look for every time. The text reads, for example "That's not my bear!.... Its tongue is too scratchy!" until the last page, when you finally find your own bear!!

My 1 year old enthusiastically feels each texture and turns the pages, and wants to read this one over and over again. His first word? "Bear"........

When you get bored of this one (which will happen way way before your baby does), try one of the others in the series. We also have "That's not my dinosaur" and "That's not my tractor". You can get a Dolly one, plus Teddy, Car, Kitten, and several others.

Not as good as others in the series
I have had a couple of these books from the series including thats not my dinosaur and thats not my monkey and my 4 month old has really enjoyed them. We were both disappointed with this book that the colour contrast between the 'touchy feely' bits was not great and some of the pages had only a very small textured piece to feel which is difficult for younger babies who are not very dexterous. I would definately recommend the series but would advise on one of the other books with brighter colours and more to feel and see.

Usborne feely books
We bought his book for our new grand son as we know how popular these books are with our 17 month old grand daughter.
