Jo Lodge is an illustrator and paper engineer and was greatly influenced by her artistic parents - her mother, Maureen Roffey, an illustrator, and her father Bernard Lodge, a graphic designer. Jo graduated with a fashion degree from Kingston University and worked for a knitwear company designing their main collection and consulting on projects for Next, Marks & Spencer and Saks Fifth Avenue. Jo is probably best known for her Mr Croc books but her distinctive bright colours and appealing animal characters have been used across a range of children's books including Baby's First Playbook: Farm, and Pounce! Little Kitten. She lives in West Sussex with her husband and two sons.

I can totally see this series becoming a must-have for babies' bookshelves. They're so accessible, entertaining and brilliant for early learners. -- Caz Cook * Teeny Readers, Instagram * A bright board book for little ones, this one also has enduring appeal as babies become toddlers and start learning words. There are just a few point-and-say words on each spread, but it's enough to start with and get kids used to seeing and saying objects and their names, even if they can't read. The googly eyes are a fun extra which lend a play element to the book, too. -- Book Trust, Anna McKerrow * BookTrust *
