The way this book has me in a chokehold

Good never touch a book. The textures aren’t my favorite in this one, but the cover is realllll good with the bears fur. This was my least favorite of the books tonight, but it was a rare 4 book night, and if this is the worst book read, you know it was a good night. Solid book to have in the library

I will fight anyone who rates this less than a 5! Great book- fun for people of ALL ages. Cute interactive tactile pictures. I read this three times tonight and could have read it three more times. (My only problem is that the cursive text is a bit hard to read upside down, but that is something I just need to work on this year.)

Logging to keep track of my daughter’s 500 before 5.

Great book. Lots of sensory additions for touch and good use of Arctic words if your little is adding to their vocabulary.

Some of the polar bear “fur” yellows and is hard to clean.

Excellent book for a 7 month old. The touchy feely bits are fascinating. The text is lackluster so I recommend substituting your own narrative. It will probably make more sense.

I personally don’t love the textures as they are all rubber, but my 1 year old loves them, and that’s what matters. I also don’t love when a book gives instructions and then obviously wants you to disobey them. I get that it’s fun, it’s just not my style of fun.

My children are now 7 and up, but if they were still toddlers, this would be a fantastic experience! Each page provides a new tactile experience with fun images to view. Such a great book for a young child's library!

This might be my favorite of the NEVER touch series so far. The textures are amazing! It also provides the opportunity to explain the difference between arctic animals and Antarctic animals as both are featured.

[Mary · Rating 3 out of 5]

My son loves the textures in this Never Touch... book, but I'm not a huge fan of the text. Every animal featured is male. Why? I haven't noticed this in his other Never Touch... books, so I'm not sure why it's the case here.

My baby and me kids loved this book? The textures are great.

[The eerie reader · Rating 5 out of 5]

My daughter adores this book. The textures are fun and the illustrations are very colorful

[Caroline · Rating 3 out of 5]

Cute illustrations and fun tactile pages that my two-year-old niece enjoyed, but I'm a little puzzled about the story concept.

[Ben · Rating 2 out of 5]

This book is frustrating. The tactile bits and art are fun, but the story elements are bizarre, and penguins are NOT Arctic animals.

[Grace · Rating 5 out of 5]

As far as newborn books go, this one is pretty stellar

[Margo Allen · Rating 5 out of 5]

There are lots of fun arctic animals in this book. I love penguins and polar bears.

[Carolyn Allison · Rating 5 out of 5]

[Rachel Aimee · Rating 5 out of 5]

“I liked when they said you must never touch a polar bear. The seal is my favorite to touch and the whale.” -Luke

I’ve had to read this book a thousand times in the last 4 years. -mama

Jacob has several in series.. including this one and never touch a grumpy bunny.

[CQ Kendall · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book has been getting better and better as I've matured. The rawr of the polar bear pairs well with its satisfying rubber fur. Shivers and giggles!

[Sarah · Rating 5 out of 5]

Cute cardboard book for early readers with sensory elements.

[Viviane Elbee · Rating 5 out of 5]

Adorable tactile board book that has some Artic animals doing whimsical activities like ice skating and knitting.

[Ella · Rating 4 out of 5]

This one is fun, but sometimes I’m too impatient to finish the longer pages.

[Kylee Timmreck · Rating 4 out of 5]

7.5/10⭐️

[Jordan Booth · Rating 4 out of 5]

Great textures done with silicon so it doesn’t feel as grimy as cloth.

[Ruby Reads · Rating 5 out of 5]

W & G love this book, and all the ones in this series. They have great sensory pages with rubbery textures.
