Description
This is not a book. It's a plane... it's a dinosaur... and so much more!
Dive into the book that isn't a book and interact with the pages to create exciting new objects and worlds. Fly the book like an aeroplane, wear it like a hat, turn it into a monster mask, transform it into a roaring dinosaur or sail it like a pirate ship! And with bright, fantastical illustrations from Katie Vernon, there is nothing normal about this picture book!
This playful picture book includes flaps and diecuts, creating an entertaining and interactive reading experience that children will be actively involved in. This fantastic playbook will unlock and boost a child's imagination, encouraging ALL children to love and enjoy books.
This is an exciting collaboration with the play experts at Great Ormond Street Hospital and Happy Yak, who have created a range of upbeat books that transport kids to magical places through the power of play and imagination. A charitable donation is given to Great Ormond Street Hospital Children's Charity for every copy sold.

She is a trend leader and a master watercolorist, and winner of the 2015 Lilla Rogers Global Talent Search. Her inspiration comes from being a florist, working with alpacas, and living on a bus. Her happy place is either hiking with her family or drinking seltzer water in her studio.
