What is The Toys We Play With about?
Why is a ball round, and how does a puppet move? This lively introduction explores the toys children know and love, from puzzles and building blocks to dolls, balls and puppets. Young readers discover how toys are designed, what materials they are made from and why their shapes help them work. Clear text and engaging examples encourage children to look closely at the objects around them, ask questions and think about how playthings are made for fun.
