One of the very first Usborne books that I read to my daughter Malaya is from the series that I sell at least one book from at every show - The Touchy-Feely Board Book Series. This series is for very young children and was designed to develop sensory and language awareness. Even my 6 month old enjoys interacting with these books by petting the furry dog or feeling the bumpy dinosaur. The pages are thick enough for her to turn herself and I don't mind letting her put the book in her mouth afterwards (her after-story tradition right now) because the books are very sturdy.
