With a background in mechanical engineering, he developed an interest in hand-made crafts in Bolivia, and makes unique pieces of art through the convergence of textiles, paper engineering and traditional printed book form.

'I liked it because it is very different to most books. There are
no words and you can open each side from the middle to make lots of
different shapes and patterns.'
*Abbie Collings, age 5, for lovereading4kids.co.uk*
'ingenious! My two year old loved this book. She knows her colours
already but this book introduced her to shapes and improved her
counting. The format kept her interested. A great book all
round.'
*mother, for lovereading4kids.co.uk*
'It's the coffee table book of kids books... My 2 year old
really enjoys this book and I think he'll learn lots from it.'
*mother, for lovereading4kids.co.uk*
'simple, yet ingenious, chunky book that as it unfolds, encourages
youngsters to find out about 2D shapes and colours, and do some
counting along the way... Playful, engrossing and
educational'
*redreadinghub*
'A simple cover image does not do justice to this unique title'
*Achuka*
'intriguingly different from the panoply of 'my
first' education books...something in its near-blankness
feels intensely inviting... the children who play
absorbedly with this book will be taught by it in the best way– by
stealth.'
*TLS*
'this will entertain and stir the imagination
of preschoolers. Simple, but effective'
*Irish Examiner*
