About the Author
Roger Priddy left school at 16 with just one qualification—in art. He went to Berkshire College of Art and Design and trained as an illustrator. His first job in children’s books was working with the publisher Peter Usborne, at Usborne Publishing, and then he worked with Peter Kindersley at Dorling Kindersley, where he spent 16 years. Priddy became Creative Director of DK’s Children’s Division and was Managing Director of the children’s mass market publisher Funfax when it was acquired by DK.
In 2000, he created Priddy Books with John Sargent at St Martin’s Press to create innovative and imaginative titles for children, from first books for babies through early reference titles for older children. Since then, over 30 million copies of Roger's 200 plus books have sold worldwide, with five of his books—My Big Animal, My Big Truck, Happy Baby Words, Happy Baby Colors and Puppy and Friends—each selling over one million copies. He is also the author of Big Board First 100 Words; Big Board Books Colors, ABC, Numbers; and Bright Baby Noisy Monsters. His creativity has been recognized with numerous industry awards. Priddy lives in London with his wife Zena and their four children.

More About the Author
Roger Priddy is the creator of over two hundred best selling books for young children including Wipe Clean ABC, First 100 Words, and Fuzzy Bee.
When he was at school he couldn't decide between being a patisserie chef or going to art college. On the advice of his father he chose art college and trained as an illustrator before becoming a designer at Usborne Publishing.
Roger's love for children's early learning has led him to create some of the most successful children's non-fiction books, first at Dorling Kindersley (My First Word Book, Incredible Cross Sections and My First Cook Book) before he set up Priddy Books with St. Martins Press in New York where several of his books have sold over a million copies each including My Big Animal Book and Happy Baby Words.
In total he has sold over 65 million books worldwide and his books have been translated into over 30 languages.
He says "It is always rewarding to see a child enjoying and learning something from one of our books, especially the babies when you think it could be the first book they have ever seen.
I am very lucky to have a career where you get to think up fun ways to teach a kid how to write their letters and learn their first words whilst finding out about Dinosaurs at the same time!"
Roger lives with his wife Zena in London and Cork, Ireland (when it's not raining, which isn't very often!) They have four children Sam, Rose, Alannah and Gabriel (and a dog called Wallace) who have given him most of his best ideas for his books. He still loves baking bread and cakes!

Great Collection of Learning Books!...,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Bright Baby First Learning Box (Misc. Supplies)
I was a little uncertain as to what exactly came in this box since there were no pictures (I have since posted one for those who may be interested), but upon receiving it, I am very pleased! There are 6 different learning items for children. Some are board books, one is a plastic bath book that your child can have in the tub with him. There's a soft fabric book, and a set of flash cards on a ring (be careful with these though, they're made of a glossy cardboard, so you child will be able to chew them up). There's also a touch and feel animal book that my son (18 mos) just loves!Overall, I definitely recommend this box. It's a great collection of books that teaches kids numbers, colors, letters, animals, and every day words like chair, boy, shirt, pants, etc. The pictures and words are very clear and VERY colorful, and I look forward to using them with my son.

Wonderful gift for a young child. Great books that they can man handle and they stay together. Bright colors and great learning tool.Even the box was a hit as she loves to put the books back into it and shut it and carry it about.
