For this series, I think this one stands out a little less than others in the group. Most of the textures in this book are really similar to each other with each one some variation of furry basically. My little boy does still really like it, but maybe not as much as the bunny or plane one. His favorite page is the hairy tail and he likes grabbing at the hair and trying to pull it out lol

Another book in the "That's not my..." series. There's different textures for baby to explore and my 11-month old loved touching the pages. A zebra is an interesting animal to write a book about but this book is not one of my favourites in the series.

3 stars.

Lily's choice from Indro library before it shut down due to COVID. Another in this cute series. Reminds me of the scene in Madagascar Escape 2 Africa.

7/10

A great touchy-feely book. My daughter loves turning the pages (thicker book so it's easier to turn) and touch the different textures on each page.

Not much variation between zebras (not as much as in the kitten book, for example), but still another nice addition to this popular touchy feely series!

How many zebras does one have?

Grandma picked this out for me at the library. She read it with me today. I loved feeling the different textures! I’m getting very good at finding the textures on my own.
