Overview
This charming trio brings together This is Crab, This is Frog, and This is Owl, the beloved interactive picture books illustrated by Jacqui Lee and written by Harriet Evans and Libby Walden. Perfect for toddlers ages 3-7, each title uses bold visuals and playful, repeatable phrasing that invites little ones to clap, flap, point, and imitate along the way. From a sideways-scuttling crab to a bouncing rainforest frog and a wide-eyed nighttime owl, this set turns story time into an adventure, building early vocabulary, listening skills, and a genuine love of books from the very first page.

About the Books
Each book in this collection follows the signature "This is..." interactive format that has made the series a favorite for read-aloud time. This is Crab takes children to a sunny shoreline, where a crab scuttles sideways across the sand, inviting toddlers to imitate its movements and spot colorful sea life. This is Frog leaps into a rainforest setting, where readers help a cheerful frog hop between leaves and vines, tracing paths and clapping along to the rhythm of the story. This is Owl closes out the set with a nighttime journey through the forest, as a friendly owl winks and flaps past sleepy woodland friends, encouraging little ones to listen closely and join the fun. Across all three books, young readers are guided through gentle, participatory moments — pointing, tapping, and mimicking animal actions — that make reading feel like play. The consistent format and bright illustrations help children build confidence turning pages, while the varied settings introduce different habitats, colors, and animal behaviors. This set offers a well-rounded early-learning experience that keeps toddlers engaged from cover to cover, making it a ready-made addition to any home library, nursery bookshelf, or classroom reading corner.
