Find out more about Priddy Books at www.priddybooks.com

In 2013, we launched our Play and Learn with Wallace

apps, which we developed with early years specialists to

create an exciting and interactive early learning platform.

While most publishers create apps from their books, our

plan was always to produce books and apps together to

give children an all-round approach to their learning. In

May, we are launching our Play and Learn with Wallace

series with three titles full of activities to help children

master the key skills they will need for their first school

years. We have also gone back to good old-fashioned

early learning with our Wipe Clean Dot to Dot series, a

simple, fun way to engage and entertain preschoolers and

help them develop their pen control skills. Both series in

their different ways lay the foundations of early learning

and help children to prepare for starting school and the

years beyond.
