Here at Bookbag we don't normally cover sticker books but with the school holidays coming up we couldn't resist a series of books which just might get children away from the computer and out in the fresh air doing something interesting - and which might even be gently educational. We've seen four books in the ''Let Look on the...'' series and ''Let's Look on the Farm'' is an good example of the series.
The format is simple. You start with a paperback book of A4 size, but with a cover that's rather more substantial than usual. There's an introduction to the location - in this case the farm, with its different crops and animals followed by more detail as the page is turned. Some 'Amazing Farm Facts' cover more than just the basics, such as the fact that carrots were sometimes purple rather than orange and hens often cluck as they lay their eggs.
Next up is a double-page spread of animals and crops for you to spot and tick off and then a some harder items to find. In the centre of the book is a sheet of thirty stickers which will detach without causing any damage - and at the back of the book there's a fold-out farmscape on which you can place your stickers. The illustrations are good - and the stickers ''do'', which can't always be said.
The series will interest children up to the age of seven or eight, with a not unreasonable cover price.
For more to get the children outside we can recommend [[Outdoor Wonderland by Josie Jeffery]] and [[Secrets of the Seashore by Carron Brown and Alyssa Nassner]].
