The School Library Journal’s Great Board Books of 2022
Published on 21/12/2022
We are excited to share that two books by Astound illustrators made The School Library Journal’s list of Great Board Books 2022!
Both “I Want That” illustrated by Ana Sanfelippo and “SQUEAK-A-BOO” illustrated by Grace Habib have made the list.
“I Want That” is an imaginative book that shows some of the many crazy things babies will try to grab. It has a wheel to spin what the baby is reaching for, for a fun and interactive experience! “SQUEAK-A-BOO” is an adorable and unique peek-a-boo style book with lifting flaps for reveals. It offers astounding illustrations, great rhymes, and peek-a-boo fun!
Congratulations to both illustrators and authors! See the full list of Great Board Books here.
