FlipOver Concept Books: TEXTURES (1-08829-00) is one of several books in this popular APH book series that allows a young child to learn basic concepts and develop important tactile skills using an interactive, fun platform.

The specific goal of TEXTURES is for the child to find three adjacent panels that are embossed with the same textured pattern. An assortment of textured vinyl panels is provided that the instructor can select from to build a unique TEXTURE flip-over book. Each texture appears as red, blue, and yellow panels to provide visual interest for dual readers and sighted peers. Some panels are duplicated in soft flocked styrene to encourage the child to discriminate between subtle textural differences. Textures include the following and those with an asterisk (*) are duplicated in flocked styrene:

Note: This book utilizes a special binding that opens and closes easily to allow the instructor to randomize and shuffle the panels within each stack to prevent the child from memorizing the exact location of a panel. The instructor can also minimize the number of images presented in the book, if needed, for a younger child.

Concept books are a great way to prepare your child for kindergarten and beyond. Concept books explore letters, numbers, shapes, colors, and other subjects in an informative yet entertaining format. Read on to learn about the benefits of concept books as well as a few recommended favorites.

Counting books teach children all about numbers. Through these books, children learn to recognize numbers and understand that numbers follow a sequence and have quantities associated with them. More advanced counting books also teach simple addition and subtraction concepts.

Besides teaching children about the alphabet and numbers, concept books can also focus on shapes, colors, telling time, and other subjects. No matter the subject, quality concept books teach and entertain simultaneously.

Concept books are a special group of picture books that are, "designed to explain an idea, object, or activity" (Lynch-Brown, 1999). The library has concept books about subjects like counting, shapes, time, letters, and colors.

Concept books, when used by adults to facilitate a dialogue about objects or dynamics in the real world, can have immense value in helping children create categories and reference points for what they see around them. This will not only help them as readers, but as lifelong learners!

Concept books focus on a specific, concrete idea that the author wants to reinforce with the young reader. ABC and counting books are concept books as are books about shapes, colors, sizes, the five senses, seasons, opposites, feelings, etc.

Following my research into book printing companies, I wanted to get a first hand experience looking at existing concept art books to get a feel for some design choices, and ultimately help me to make my own. I started by gathering a few video game art books from the library. Examining them gave me insight as how a book is formed I immediately started generating ideas for my own book, such as how many pages I want to have and what size book I want.

Upon closer inspection, I can see how the textblock is comprised of 12 signatures (page sections). These signatures allow the pages to be bound together, and leaves no chance of any pages falling out. This picture also shows how thick the cover is, as well as the page weights.

From the two-time Caldecott Medalist, and author-illustrator of Green and Blue, comes Red, a story about a lone fox told through vivid red illustrations, die-cut pages, and simple text that explores how color evokes emotions like fear, love, and anger. See our q&a with Seeger.

Per our starred review, This ethereal book of ideas captures variations on how time passes in lyrical writing and images that offer moments of wonder and change.

My youngest is preschool age and with Summer around the corner I wanted to pull out a bunch of fun preschool concept books for our feature shelves so we could work on the basics together at home. I had so much fun compiling this selection. They include books that teach the alphabet, counting, opposites, colors and more. Each one is phenomenal and lots of fun. Plus, the list includes board books and picture books because at this age I prefer that my kids mostly handle board books because they are still perfecting the art of caring for picture books. I hope that you and your young kiddos enjoy these books as well as they give you a little extra practice whether for preschool or in preparation of preschool.

Count Your Chickens by Jo Ellen Bogart and Lori Joy Smith- This counting book is so fun! There are so many chickens on each page to count and there is a search-and-find counting challenge section in the back.

Tiger Days: A Book of Feelings by M.H. Clark and Anna Hurley- This book about feelings and emotional awareness is especially perfect for preschool age in my opinion. It is simple, effective and relatable. Love it.

One Fox: A Counting Book Thriller by Kate Read- This one is a fun twist on counting books because of the clever and shocking ending. It has a dramatic climax that adds a lot of fun to classic counting books.

One Is a Piata by Roseanne Greenfield Thong and John Parra- I love this cultural twist on a classic counting book. Teach my child about another culture while also practicing our numbers? Yes, please!

The Right Number of Elephants by Jeff Sheppard and Felicia Bond- This book is a favorite from my childhood and I am so pleased that I get to share it with my children. Passing on favorite books is the best!

One Lonely Fish by Andy Mansfield and Thomas Flintham- This is another counting book with a dramatic climax and a purely delightful surprise ending. We have read it about a zillion times and laughed over and over.

Build on the skill: On each page of the book, talk about the social skill mentioned. Ask your child what the illustrations are depicting. Discuss different times he/she may encounter the skills in the book.

I'm a children's librarian in the midwest. I have a Master's in Library Science, with a Youth Services specialization. I like to think of myself as a professional reader of children's books, a sensory enthusiast, and a play activist. Which is great for working with children because kids' days are full of learning and playing (and in my dream world, reading books)!

In 2011 I had the privilege of meeting for the first time with Abdul Chohan, who at the time was a director at Essa Academy, Bolton. This was to be a chance meeting that would transform my understanding and approach towards teaching and open my eyes to a new way of engaging and empowering students whilst ensuring they were better equipped with the skills necessary for a more independent and student driven approach to learning.

So I was left to consider which app would best allow us to achieve this, allowing both students and teachers to create content and feel empowered in this significant change in approach. As is the case with most of my professional learning these days, I found Book Creator through discussion with the amazing community of teachers who are using Twitter to share their experiences and thoughts.

We often have teachers coming to visit our school. It is certainly true that the majority know of and and want to learn more about the way in which we are using Book Creator to encourage learners to take more responsibility for their own learning within Maths. In 2016 we introduced Concept Books to all pupils from Primary 3 upwards and insisted that teachers planned and provided lesson time for pupils to create these books.
