Another great book by Hervé Tullet is Press Here. This book consists of no characters, just words and dots. The book is great for preschool aged children. It teaches them about numbers and colors in a really fun way. The book starts off on the first page with one yellow dot and gives d
irection to press the dot and then turn the page. Each page has a different direction and when you do what the direction says and turn to the next page something will happen to the dot. The dots multiply, change colors, grow and shrink in sizes, move from side to side on the pages, and scatter! The book teaches children a lot of important information without the child even realizes it. They are learning in a different and more hands on way!

Emily Loughman – Help! We Need a Title!
Help! We Need a Title! by Hervé Tullet is about a story that is unfinished. This picture book for preschoolers combines drawn characters and pictures of Tullet himself! Some of the characters in this fun book consist of a blonde wizard girl, a pig, a snake, a stick man, a dog, and Tullet. It starts off talking about how the characters have not been given a story yet and how they try to make the book exciting so we won’t stop reading. They then bring in a bad guy to make the story more interesting, he then tells them to ask the author for a story! It is interesting because Tullet took pictures of just his shoulders and face..then drew a body on him to complete the picture. It was very unique and fun because I had not seen something like this before. In the end, Tullet makes up a story for the book; once it is over all the characters say goodbye and the story is over shortly after that. Preschoolers will enjoy this book because of the characters, colors, plot, and all the creative aspects to it.
