    About The Button Book

    This silly and sweet picture book introduces young children to colors through humor and clever interactive elements. For fans of Hervé Tullet’s Press Here.

    Here’s a button. I wonder what happens when you press it?

    Follow a group of animal friends as they discover a collection of mysterious buttons, all of which do different things!

    From a blue singing button to a purple tickle button, from a rude sound button to a mysterious white button, there’s only one way to find out what they do: press them all! And thankfully, there’s even a sleeping button to lull the animals to sleep after a busy day.

    A lively introduction to colors and shapes, The Button Book is the perfect interactive book for storytime (and bedtime!).

    One of The Guardian‘s Best Children’s Books of 2019
    A 2021 Bank Street Book of the Year

    PRAISE FOR The Button Book: 

    “More confirmation that children’s book creators are unsung geniuses.” –The New York Times Review of Books

    “British writer Nicholls’ simple, silly narrative and Woollvin’s colorfully childlike illustrations result in a fun picture book that incorporates shapes and colors and that can be used at home and in libraries and classrooms. . . . [The book] should have readers and caregivers singing, clapping, and bouncing along.” –Kirkus Reviews

    “There’s lots of scope for adult and child pizzazz in pushing the button pictures and acting out the results — clapping, singing, blowing raspberries (sure to be a favourite).” —Toronto Star
