About the story
Usborne’s That’s not my… Halloween is a bigger-format, extra-special edition of the much-loved touchy-feely series. From fluffy cats’ tummies to soft bats’ wings, there are lots of textures to explore – and a spooky glowing pumpkin with lights at the end!
What’s inside
- Usborne That’s not my… Halloween Touchy-Feely Board Book – textured patches and a light-up pumpkin build early language and sensory exploration.
- Crochet spider rattle – handmade from Fairtrade organic cotton yarn, soft to hold with a gentle rattle sound.
- Wooden pumpkin (Lanka Kade) – sustainably handcrafted, bold in colour and lovely to hold.
- Optional: Petit Boum float bottle – orange, purple or black glitter drifting slowly through coloured liquid. Mesmerising and calming.
