I've checked out every single one of the books in this series from the library. I wanted to buy a few of these books, but there's so many repeat textures, I wanted some with good variety. I ended up buying this one and 2 others (That's not my Tractor and That's not my Dinosaur). There are a few repeats, but I don't really mind. I also almost bought That's not my Monkey.That's not my Penguin has these textures: tummy too fuzzy, wings too velvety, head too silky, beak too shiny, feet too rubbery, baby so fluffy. I really like the velvety wings and I don't think any other book in the series uses silky or rubbery textures, so it has good variety.These books are super cute and very thick and durable. I've also looked at the touch and feel books by D.K. publishing (Farm, Wild Animals, Baby Animals) and they are definitely not as sturdy as these books. And I love the drawings and the that's not my... concept better too. Great books!!
Overall, these books are great first books for babies. My daughter is 10 months old and loves them. (Her brother is a little over two years old and he likes them too.) The pages are easy for her to turn and she'll pull these books off the shelf and turn the pages all by herself. The illustrations are bright and hold her attention and she likes to explore the textures. The books are well made for touch and feel style books and are holding up well. There are six sentences per book. The cover is the beginning of the book and there are five additional two-page spreads. This book has a fuzzy tummy, velvety wings, silky head, shiny beak, rubbery feet, and fluffy baby. I love most of these books, but I rated this one three stars because although the illustrations are cute, the touch and feel textures are not great. The fuzzy tummy isn't actually made of something fuzzy. The fluffy baby sheds hair and isn't all that fluffy. The others are just kind of boring (except the velvety wings which are spectacular).Summary: Choose another from the series, not this one.
We love this series, but this is not one of our favorites. I still give it a 5 stars, because although it is not the best in the series, my kids still love it and "read" it often. The textures included in this one are: fuzzy, velvety, silky, shiny, rubbery, and fluffy. The reason I say this is not the best is we prefer the books where every picture is different, like the monster and dinosaur one. When you are working with something like a penguin, all the illustrations look kind of similar.Overall I strongly recommend this entire series, they are a great quality with thick pages and the textured patches are larger than other similar books we have found.
I bought this for my 9-month-old baby, and we both enjoy reading it.The pages are thick and sturdy, and have held up to lots of grabbing and throwing. They are also laminated, but lightly - I have had some tearing on one page where it got very wet and stuck to the other side, but other than that it still looks good.The textures are varied enough to keep my baby interested (fuzzy, velvety, silky, shiny, rubbery, and fluffy). There are also different species of penguins.It would be nice if there were more colors on the textured parts -- three of them are black, one is white, one is grey and one is orange. Because of that, it took several readings for my baby to "find" all of the textured parts on the page, and even now the orange "silky" one is the favorite of the book. Still, now that we are familiar with the book we enjoy all the pages.I don't have any of the other "That's Not My…" books but this was a good introduction to the series and I recommend it for babies who like some interaction with their reading material.
My son loves these books! He really likes the different textures. I like that there's a hidden mouse on each page so we play a 'find the mouse' game when we're going through the book for the 100th time. It's something different and exciting for him.
We have a bunch of these "That's Not My ..." books. I can't say I love reading them but my kids (one year olds) love the different textures and they're a quick bedtime read which is all they normally have the attention span to handle in any case.
I purchased "That's Not My Dragon" for a grandson and he loved it. I purchased "That's Not My Penguin" for my granddaughter and when it arrived I looked through it. The cover is cute as are most of the pages. However, the first page is very scary! The kind of scary that makes kids have night mares. The eyes on the first penguin are horrible and I am in search of some eye stickers to place over the eyes so that I can read the book to my granddaughter. My advice is don't buy this book.
This cute little board book contains five two-page spreads, each one of which contains a small textured piece that the little reader can feel. It might be a velvety wing, a silky head, or what have you. The book is cute, with short text and bright illustrations. It is a nice book for a very young read, one that is sure to please – I mean who wouldn’t like to touch a baby penguin?
