Kaaren Pixton (1946–2022)

Plip-Plop Pond! is the first in the series of Indestructibles. The artist, Kaaren Pixton is also the mastermind behind the Indestructible concept. Small (only 7") and square, they're the perfect size for little hands. And don't call these "board books," they're only about 1/16" thick! The pages are sewn together tightly, and according to Workman Publishing, they are chew proof, rip proof, noxtoxic, and 100% washable. Heck - you can even throw them in the dishwasher! As if that weren't enough show more (I'm beginning to sound like an infomercial here), they're beautiful.

Plip-Plop Pond! follows a friendly frog as he meets the other inhabitants of the pond - a swan, a heron, salamanders and more. Each page show the happy frog greeting a new friend. Full of vibrant, earthy colors, there is no white space in these inviting pages. No more than three creatures appear on each page, enabling little eyes to easily pick out the characters.
Little children will eat these books up (or at least try to!)

There are 8 books in the collection. This review is for an Advance Reader Copy that I received from the publisher.
