That's Not My Puppy: Its Coat Is Too Hairy (Watt, Fiona. Usborne Touchy-Feely Books.)

Customer Reviews:

My baby loves it!.......2007-09-13

short and sweet, my 9-month-old baby loves this book. she has a couple of favorite pages, but we often look at this book. we also have That's Not My Train, which she also enjoys. I think we need to get more! a really great book!

a FAVORITE first book!.......2007-05-22

We started reading this book to our daughter when she was just a few months old and it is definately a favorite first book! The words are simple, repetative (but in a cute way not an annoying way:) and there is a new texture to touch on every page. It's so interactive. This is one of the few that our daughter loved to sit all the way through and it's small enough to go everywhere with us (and now that she can walk, she really can carry it with her everywhere:).

Happy with this book.......2007-04-11

These books are really cute. My son (8 mos.) likes to feel the different textures, and my daughter (3 1/2) likes to find the mouse on each page. We have the dinosaur one also.

A FAVORITE!!.......2007-03-11

This is my daughter's FAVORITE book. She's nine months and we've been reading it regularly fo the past couple of months. She loves the basic repetition of 'that's not my puppy..' and especially loves the '..ears are too shaggy.'page. She'll reach for the feely parts of the book :)
It's to the point now where if she's fussy or bored we can recite a line from the book (without having the book, just from memory)and she instantly is destracted, looks up at us and smiles!
I'm super pumped to learn there's other books in the 'series'!! Wish I'd had known sooner :)

Great book.......2007-03-08

This is such a cute book my daughter loves it. She has started to read it to us now and loves the fuzzy pages.

Book Description

This book advances the theory and techniques developed by Dr. Toshikatsu Yamamoto to treat patients with musculoskeletal and neurological pain. It provides a concise overview of Dr. Yamamoto's principles of scalp acupuncture, with complete descriptions of Basic points, Ypsilon points, as well as new points developed by the author. Discussion of indications, contraindications, diagnosis, needling techniques and selection, and possible side effects provide the practitioner with the key information needed to determine the most effective treatment protocols for each patient.

Highlights of this text:

An accompanying DVD with instructional videos facilitates comprehension of the palpatory, diagnostic, and therapeutic techniques in the YNSA system

A laminated chart insert distinguishes YNSA points in color and serves as a convenient tool in the clinical setting

More than 70 figures and algorithms supplement textual descriptions of points and treatments

A chapter on the correlative theoretical principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine and YNSA treatments helps the practitioner gain a firm understanding of important concepts

An ideal text for beginners, Yamamoto New Scalp Acupuncture places special emphasis on the ease with which newcomers can integrate YNSA treatments into everyday practice. This book is an essential resource for pain specialists and practitioners seeking to enhance their patient care.

Customer Reviews:

Very Good Book.......2007-03-06

The book is very good, well writen and very ease to understand... the DVD that comes together helps a lot, I think the DVD is so important to locate the points. I really improved results in clinical cases. I dont give 5 starts because the chart that comes with the book the location of the points are quite differente between the book/DVD from the chart.. It would be very nice to receive another chart :).

Thanks
I really recommend

Fun book for little readers.......2007-08-13

My daughter got this book at 7 months old, and she has loved it from the beginning. She loves to feel all the different textures, and now that she is 11 months old she loves to "read" it on her own. The book is durable and colorful, and I recommend it.

Fuzzy, Fluffy, Squashy Fun.......2005-09-13

Our twin babies are enjoying these "That's Not My..." books. These are more engaging than some of the other touchy-feely books we've got. Some books put materials in the pages for the babies to touch, just for the sake of having them there - and the words don't seem to "match up" with the thing we're feeling, or they are so stretched for material that it barely makes sense what we're feeling. Many of the "touchy-feely" books simply lack story content. That's not true of these Usborne touchy-feelies. The text is simple and makes sense to toddlers, and gives them a wider vocabulary of adjectives -- especially "tactile" words, like "fuzzy," "fluffy," "shiny," "hairy," and even (in "That's Not My Teddy"), "squashy!"

For bigger babies (my babies are just one year old), it's neat to notice a cute little mouse who shows up on every page. That's one thing I love about Usborne baby books - even when the babies are tired of looking at the main story, there's always the cute little mouse to notice and talk about!

Our Son's Favorite! .......2005-09-09

Our son is now 5 months old and this is his favorite book. He loves trying to grab the mouse on every page and knows where to feel on all the teddies. He likes books in general, but you can really see him tune in when we pull this one out - he loves it! We can't wait to try out the others in this series!

Also, as the other reviewers mentioned, a very sturdy book compared to other touchy-feelies. It has thick pages and a wide variety of durable textures.

One of the best of the many touch and feel books out there!.......2005-06-19

There are ALL KINDS of touch and feel books out there now, many more than there were 7 years ago during my prior go-round as a mother of a baby! I find the quality varies a lot. So far, this is the winner for me! The pages are very thick, so the touchable parts of them can be thick also, and really be something you can touch. When the teddy shown has a soft nose, it's truly soft fabric, and feels like it will stay that way. The shiny eyes on another are big enough to really be noticed. The pages are simple and uncluttered, and the story is basic enough to be understood by a young listener. I plan on buying more from this series!

Good story.......2004-12-26

This book does not only things too feel and touch - it has a very good story too. You get to follow the white mouse as it is looking for its teddy. My 19 months old likes to look in it and my 5½ years old reads it.

bedtime book.......2007-10-11

Love this book! My 5 month old has been reading this before every nap and every night before bedtime. It's the only book he doesn't squirm away from! It's repetitive and the contrasting colors are enchanting! Love it!

Entertaining for little ones throughout the infant, toddler, and preschool years.......2007-10-03

This series of "that's not my" books is really done well. Bright colors with fun themes that kids like, and happy images. Good mix of textures in each book. My son loved them before he was one year old and was just reading this very book with delight a couple of days ago, and he's almost four. I highly recommend these (and almost anything else Usborne!)

That's Not My Dinosaur.......2007-08-16

A fantastic book for little ones. My 22 mo son LOVES the "Not My" series.

Over and Over she reads this one by herself!.......2007-07-05

My kiddo is 3 now and has had this book for over a year now. She loves it ans will read it to us over and over. She loves the touch and feel and we play find the mouse game as there is a small white mouse on each page too! Great books also have this is not my dog.

Attention Grabber.......2006-12-20

My daughter is 10 months old and loves this book. It is the only one she doesn't try to close before the end. Simple, bright colors, nice thick pages and keeps her interest. She loves feeling the different textures on each page. She chooses this book over all her other ones. All the books by this author are very similar but we have two of them anyway.

Great books!.......2007-08-23

These books are such a hit with my son who is now 3 and still loves them. In fact I have just recently bought more of them. We started with That's Not My Car.. and it seems have started an addiction. They are great fun and we take turns picking out which car (monster, puppy, train..etc) we like best. We also look for the mouse on each page. I think these are some of the best toddler books out there and would recommend them highly.

We love our monsters.......2007-07-31

We have 4 other titles in this series and this is one of the favorites. I bought monsters hoping my child wouldn't become afraid of monsters under his bed--a mother can hope. Some of the texture areas are small, but all cute and all different.

love this series books.......2007-06-14

wonderful books!!!!!!!!!!!! get them all!!! our daughter has loved them since she turned one, and still loves them after turning 2! very fun to read, colours are vibrant, textures are appropriate, such nice books!! first discovered this series on www.mybabycantalk.com 's dvd's "First signs" and "Sharing signs" (by the way the BEST dvd's for babies and toddlers to learn sign language (asl) and english words. they are a must alongwith the books listed here.

Son doesn't want to put these books down.......2007-05-17

Similar to the other books in this series, the pages are very vibrant with a variety of textures for our 10 month old son to enjoy (lick, scratch, pull, etc...) Although some textures do repeat themselves across the series, he can't seem to get enough. We take the books with us on trips and other friends' children (toddlers) love the books as well. We highly recommend owning at least one in the series (or like us, the whole set--spread the love and wear&tear!)

Good book for babies and toddlers.......2006-12-26

My baby has had this book since she was 6 months old, and has found new things to interest her as she grows. She is now a year and a half, and still loves feeling the textures but also seeks out the mouse on every page. I agree that it is very sturdily made. Works for boys or girls, too.

That's My Book!.......2007-07-07

This is one of the first Usborne Books I bought for my family, way before I became a consultant for the company. My youngest loved it. The text is rhythmic, the touchy-feely aspect is very attractive to babies and toddlers and there is a mouse on each page for your child to point out. This series is great for vocabulary development, especially those adjectives. For a long while my child would say "that's not my ... " in many situations such as in the parking lot going to our car. "That's not my car, it's too blue." "That's not my car, it's too big." It became a very enjoyable game for us! I call these the "potato chip" books because you can't have just one!

Usborne books are great.......2006-09-19

This is a book my 16 month old daughter asks for time and again by saying choo choo...She can now say words like rusty, glossy, and rough from reading this book and touching the textures. A great "learning to talk" aid.

Best baby book.......2006-07-27

This is my son's favorite book. I started reading it to him when he was about 3 months old and he still loves it at 9 months. (When his toddler friends visit, they read right along too.) The simple but bright graphics really hold his attention and he now loves to feel the different textures on each page. This was such a hit that we now own That's Not My...: Train, Tractor, Dinosaur, Puppy and Teddy Bear!

exceptionally well made board book.......2001-09-29

My nine-month old loves this book--he spends a lot of time just flipping through the pages and checking out the different textures. Very simple text is balanced by very sturdy, brightly colored pages. Slightly larger than most board books, too. It's a great deal for the price.

Bright bold colors and great textures!.......2001-01-02

Board book is a terrific book for very young children. My three year old reads it to my nine month old! Graphics and colors are great; use of repeative verse is perfect for the very young, ie. "that's not my train it's ...A must have for a little one's library.

We started our collection with 'not my Kitty' and 'not my puppy', we added 'not my bunny' at Christmas time, my 18 month old LOVES these books, she brings them to us to read to her and will also sit and 'read' them solo, we've invested in 6 more. Another great book, not by the same author is 'Tails'.

I bought this book for my daughter for her 1st Easter when she was almost 11 months old. She loves to rub her fingers over the parts of the bunny as I read and will turn the pages when she's done. This is her favorite book to read before bedtime and usually takes it to bed! It's a very cute book and this one and the others in the series are sure to be every baby's favorite!

That's Not My Car.......2007-01-10

This entire series of books has been a big hit with all my toddler and pre-school grandkids. The books are very hands-on and are each about favorite subjects for little ones. The rhythm, rhyme, and repetitiveness is just right for appealing to even the children who can't talk yet.

Fun for the very little kids........2007-01-09

My son (2.2) loves this book. He's really into cars and enjoys the interactive part. However, I think this book is definitely too young for him. I would get it for a 6-12 month old. Still fun, though.

Not one of the favorites of this series........2006-11-10

My daughter loves this series "Thats not my...". She wasn't crazy about this one though. The touch and feels in this particular book are not as interesting and varied as in the other books in this series. If you want to get one of the touch & feel "that's not my..." books, go for the dragon or monster.

Good book for Usborne fans but not for infants.......2007-01-11

We love the "That's Not My -----" series board books from Usborne. Our daughter loved turning the pages and touching all the different textures since she was 6 months old. Eventually she got bored with them so we ordered the Touchy-Feely Mermaids book when she was about 11-12 months.

Its definitely very colorful and busy. So much that she seemed overwhelmed as compared to the simpler Usborne books and didn't like it much. She is a bit older so she has some interest in it now. In our experience it didn't seem to be a fun a book for older infant/early toddlers since there is too much to see/read and less to grab/feel. There are sparkly sections but they are smaller.

I'd recommend this for older children. The book doesn't have a recommended age but I think older girls (and boys) would enjoy the story of how mermaids live and the colorful underwater scenes.

outstanding quality with beautiful illustrations.......2005-12-05

I have a few touchy feely books for my 10 month old, and this is one of the best. It's made of really thick cardboard pages and is almost indestructible. The illustrations are wonderfully colorful and interesting. Each page has multiple touch and feel spots, though some of the textures are similar (how many different types of scales can you find for mermaid tails) but they are all different colors and my son still enjoys touching them. The story is a little more involved than most touch and feel books, so I think he will enjoy this book for a long time. This is really a beautiful book and worth the cost.
*** Another really good touchy feely book is "Dinosaurs", also by Fiona Wells.

My daughter has loved this book (and several others in the series) since she was about 6 months old. She's getting less interested now at 13-months, but it's still a favorite.

Love these books!.......2005-07-29

I've bought 3 books from this series for my nephew and he just loves them! I read "That's Not My Puppy" to him when he was 2 months old and he just loved it. At first he responded to the colors, now, 9 months later he turns the pages and loves to touch the feely patches. We're guaranteed a big smile from him whenever we say, "that's not my puppy!"

The construction of the books are definitely first rate as well. His books still look brand new. I highly recommend the Touchy-Feely Board Books.

What a great set of books.......2005-03-06

We got my daughter one of these books (the Lion one), and she loved it so much that I went back to the book store and got the two others in the series they had (doll and dinosaur). Months later these are still her favorite books (she is now 10 months old). I am buying the rest of the set now. These books will be what I get for baby gifts from now on.

A favorite!.......2003-07-25

Our son got this book from some of our UK friends when he was about 2 months old. He's 6 months old now and this is his favorite! He squeals and gets very excited when we pull it out to read it each day. We recently got the "That's Not My Dinosaur" title for him as well...he doesn't like it as much yet, but he is used to us reading "lion" to him. High praises to Fiona Watt and Rachel Wells for creating such a great book! We will definitely get this book for any friends who have babies on the way!
