Dear Costco Readers,
What’s the best way to get young children reading? Get
them to interact with the book itself! With the Colorforms
Big Board Books, little readers can actually interact with
the characters using the Colorform pieces that stick to the
page like magic. Kids will use their imaginations to design
and create their very own scenes so they’ll enjoy a different
story every time they pick up the book. That’s why I am especially pleased to
feature the Colorforms Big Board Books as this month’s Kid’s Pick!
— Wendi Wamboldt, Costco Assistant Book Buyer, Juvenile Category
Colorforms Big Board Books are a
whole new experience in reading. With
Colorforms pieces that stick to the page
like magic, it’s a book, it’s a toy, it’s an
open-ended way for kids to
develop important visual and
emotional skills. Choose from
Silly Faces, Dress Up Girls
and Andy’s Building Fun.
Paper artists Robert Sabuda and Matthew
Reinhart are known for their incredible pop-
up books, but this time they have outdone
themselves. Encyclopedia Prehistorica
books are not only full of fascinating
information, they are also a magnificent
display of paper engineering. Amazing
pop-up spreads jump out at every page
and feature extinct beasts from the past in
Dinosaurs and creatures
from the deep in
Sharks and
Other Sea
Monsters.
