It’s always the favorite books that get torn pages and bent covers. I always grab the most used books for the boys and stash them in keepsakes as they grow beyond them and I have some tattered books in their boxes. With Indestructibles baby books, these pages won’t tear.
There are many titles from learning (colors, shapes, numbers) to everyday sights and Holidays (Hanukkah Baby and Christmas Baby). The books are chew-proof and rip-proof and printed on a unique 100% nontoxic, paperlike material making them Indestructible.
These books were invented by Amy Pixton, a mother of triplets, after bits of traditional board books found their way into her babies’ mouths. If they get dirty, just wipe them clean.
There are several collections and I get to give a collection away. I am giving away the Kate Merritt Collection. Open to US residents age 18+. Enter below by October 7, 2019. Good luck!
We love children’s books on this blog and these 7 titles are for the little one’s. I wanted to give a brief feature of these baby board books for your fall and winter reading and gifting!

Where Is My Pink Sweater? by Nicola Slater
Rudy is looking for his favorite pink sweater. It’s a little small—he’s growing out of it—yet he can’t help but treasure it! The nine jiving llamas haven’t seen it, and neither have the eight prima pigerinas. Lift the flaps and peek through the die-cuts as Rudy follows a trail of pink yarn from his bedroom to the kitchen to the backyard and everywhere in between. This sweet, adventurous story is filled with bold and humorous illustrations, plus a fun counting element along the way. Available October 8, 2019 on Amazon

Book Series for Music Lovers – The Musical Adventures of Grace
by: Kenneth E. Korber
Who is Grace?
Grace is a note. Grace notes are “minor notes that are sometimes used by the orchestra to give the music more ‘color’.” So, understandably Grace feels like in the big yearly town concert she just won’t be heard. So many big Musicians will be playing with a well-known Conductor when he joins the concert and everyone is eager to play the best and biggest notes and perform for the town.
Grace wonders how her little (note) self will stand out. It turns out that there is a special place where all of the unheard grace notes go. Together, all grace notes weave into the music silently, yet with a big role. Once they are played and were too quiet to be noticed they enter somewhere special.
Grace is the main character from the four part series “The Musical Adventures of Grace,” and was inspired by the Author’s son, a cellist, about grace notes. The four stories occur within all 4 seasons offering a children’s book to appreciate music.
So where do all of those grace notes end up? Turns out they have the biggest part in music than any other note! Read the Winter story to find out! Available on Amazon, Barnes and Noble and also on Steve Korber’s website.
There is a new series called SEN Superpowers. The series celebrates the positive traits associated with a range of common SEN (Special Education Needs) specialties, boosting the confidence and strength-awareness of children with those conditions, while also allowing for better understanding and positivity among their peers. This series is by Quarto.
Someone has been stealing food from Snowball, the classroom pet bunny! Can Izzy use her SEN Superpowers to track down the culprit and save the day? SEN Superpowers: The Classroom Mystery explores the topic of ADHD.
When I was younger they called it ‘spacing out’, ‘rude’ or ‘unable to pay attention’. We know ADHD to be a superpower now and in this series the focus on one task helps a classroom pet.
When Sammy’s group loses their map on a camping trip, can he use his SEN Superpowers to save the day and lead them safely back to the campsite? SEN Superpowers: The Map Challenge explores the topic of dyslexia.
Words are only a part of a story. There are challenges and advantages to dyslexia and this story shines on both for Sammy.
