Favourite characters for little readers
Penguin publishes some of the best-known characters in children's literature, and you'll find plenty of familiar faces in The Sleep Store collection.
Discover the wonderfully mischievous world of Hairy Maclary and Friends, including stories featuring Hairy Maclary and Scarface Claw. Little readers can also enjoy classics from Peter Rabbit, Spot and Meg and Mog.
For families wanting stories with a connection to Aotearoa, the collection also includes titles such as Matariki, a bilingual board book by award-winning New Zealand author and illustrator Gavin Bishop.
Interactive books for babies and toddlers
Books don't need to be read independently to be enjoyed. Touch-and-feel books, cloth books, board books and lift-the-flap stories give younger children opportunities to participate in story time through touching, looking, listening and exploring.
The Hairy Maclary and Friends Touch and Feel Book introduces different textures, while the crinkly cloth edition of Hairy Maclary and Friends: Cuddle and Play offers another baby-friendly way to discover these favourite characters.
