Cover Story
The poem on our front cover is taken from Figgie Hobbin by Charles Causley, with illustrations by Gerald Rose, re-issued by Macmillan (0 333 12078 7, £7.50) in May 1990. Figgie Hobbin was first published in 1970 and has remained in print ever since. We are grateful to Macmillan for help in using this illustration.
Making Friends
Mum's Home
This Little Nose
Bend and Stretch
This series of little books is very worthwhile and each one conveys warmth and humour as the blurb suggests. Babies do need books and these certainly fill the bill, for they show much about comfortable relationships and give an opportunity to teach new words, too. Definitely recommended.
