This book is part of Spot’s Learning Library. It’s designed for pre-school children who are blind or partially sighted. It provides the next step from our introductory book, Fun with Spot™, and gives further practice in our system of raised feely pictures accompanied by audio descriptions. The added tactile pictures explain simple mathematical terms that will be learnt at school and provide gentle practice in using them. We also take the opportunity to introduce the topic of healthy eating.
Spot Bakes a Cake by Eric Hill
It’s his Dad’s birthday, so Spot decides to surprise him by baking a cake. First he goes shopping for tasty ingredients then he starts cooking in the kitchen – and things get a little messy!
