Author rambling on...

So what does a quiet / busy book have in common with a regular book...?

• Both need a heap of imagination to write
• Both will entertain 
• Both have pages to turn

So how are they different...?

Quiet / busy books:

• Must be strong enough to withstand a baby, and never underestimate that...
• Can have all kinds of stuff stitched into them to stimulate a baby
• Must be chewable and washable
• A very tactile way of creating a book, by rummaging through fabrics and objects
• Not as easy to mass produce

Regular books:

• Must be strong enough to withstand reasonable use
• The content relies on words and pictures to entertain
• Will not take kindly to being chewed or washed
• An equally creative process needed to create, but less to do with things you can touch, more rummaging around in the imagination and daydreaming...
• Easily mass produced
