Overview:
Enter a world of bright color, friendly animals and engaging, movement-based storytelling with the Let’s Go Home Series 5 Books Collection Set. Created by Carolina Búzio and published by Nosy Crow, this collection brings together five irresistible sliding-counter board books designed for little hands and curious minds. Each title invites toddlers (ages 2–5) to guide a tiny animal family back to safety and comfort, using four distinct tracks that powerfully develop hand–eye coordination and concentration. The robust, durable board-book format is perfect for little readers who love tactile play as much as narrative—combining charm, rhythm and interactive features into a seamless early-learning experience. From ocean adventures to jungle journeys, farmyard pals to savannah safari, these stories offer gentle, repeated-lesson storytelling that families can return to again and again. The series aims to transform read-aloud time into an active, joyful activity where children become confident participants in the story.
What This Collection Covers:
This five-book set showcases five distinct habitats and animal groups, each with four lovable baby animals on a mission to find home. In Let’s Go Home, Baby Shark, little ones meet ocean-dwelling youngsters—shark, crab, octopus and puffin—while sliding counters guide their way back to safety along separate tracks that encourage precise finger movement and focus. Let’s Go Home, Baby T-Rex leads readers through a prehistoric landscape with baby T-rex, stegosaurus, pterodactyl and triceratops, offering a gentle dinosaur adventure that emphasizes problem-solving as the tracks reveal safe paths home. The jungle comes alive in Let’s Go Home, Baby Tiger with tiger, parrot, elephant and crocodile; the pet world in Let’s Go Home, Baby Puppy introduces baby puppy, kitten, guinea pig and fish; and the savannah comes alive in Let’s Go Home, Baby Lion featuring lion, monkey, hippo and zebra. Across all titles, the common thread is movement, rhythm and predictability that supports early literacy, spatial awareness and confidence in young readers.
Book-by-Book Guide:
Baby Shark — Dive into a sea of friendly faces as four baby sea creatures join a shark on a journey toward home. With each turn of a sliding counter, children trace a path through the ocean’s currents, encouraging fine motor control and spatial reasoning. The vibrant, high-contrast artwork keeps little eyes engaged, while the simple, reassuring text invites caregivers to repeat phrases and build a comforting bedtime routine. The four tracks offer distinct moments of focus, inviting toddlers to anticipate what happens next as the story progresses toward a satisfying, supervised ending. This title sets a gentle rhythm for the homeward trek, pairing tactile play with early narrative comprehension. Baby T-Rex — In a sunlit prehistoric setting, a baby T-rex and three dinosaur friends navigate a landscape of rocks and trees to return home. The four tracks guide curious fingers along the path, fostering concentration while supporting early problem-solving and mnemonic recall as the journey unfolds. The dinosaur lineup—T-rex, stegosaurus, pterodactyl and triceratops—offers a playful exploration of differences and similarities among species, encouraging observation and memory in a very approachable board-book format. Parents will appreciate the sturdy construction and the consistent, reassuring structure that makes this an easy repeat read. Baby Tiger — In a lush jungle, a baby tiger and three animal friends set out to find their way home. The four tracks invite little readers to move each counter along a new route, sharpening fine motor control and hand–eye coordination with every turn. Bright jungle colors and friendly animal designs create an inviting atmosphere for early readers, while the predictable pattern of movements helps build cognitive scaffolding around sequencing and cause-and-effect. This installment reinforces gentle themes of companionship and teamwork as the animals help each other reach home, one track at a time. Baby Puppy — A sweet, pet-filled adventure follows baby puppy, baby kitten, baby guinea pig and baby fish as they search for home. Each of the four tracks provides a distinct way to guide the animal quartet, promoting dexterity and focus in toddlers. The domestic setting makes this title especially appealing to little ones who recognize pets, sparking recognition, empathy and a sense of responsibility as children help the adorable characters return home. The friendly color palette, short pages and tactile sliders combine to create a cozy, confidence-building reading experience. Baby Lion — A savannah journey pairs a lion with three fellow baby savannah dwellers: monkey, hippo and zebra. Four sliding counters offer separate routes, inviting children to experiment with different paths while building memory and attention. The warm, sun-drenched art and rhythmic phrasing keep young readers engaged, turning a simple slide-and-find concept into a nuanced learning moment about ecosystems, balance and cooperation. This title closes the collection with a joyful, satisfying finish that reinforces the sense that home is a safe, welcoming place.
