Brilliant to see transfers instead of the ubiquitous stickers, and something of which I would love to see more. Once completed, this will be a book to treasure.
Review quote
I remember rub-down transfers from my childhood but haven’t seen them since. I really enjoyed looking through the pages, finding the correct transfer sheet, and choosing where to put them. Of course as soon as my children saw what I was doing they wanted to have a go to. They also enjoyed using the book, quickly grasping the idea of using the transfer sheet.
