They're crazy, they're cute, they absorb youngsters for hour after hour - what's not to love about the "Star Paws" sticker book range from Macmillan Books? We've previously taken a look at "Superheroes" and "Party Time" books in the range on our blog, now the range has been extended with four new books for your little ones.
- Star Paws "Shopping"
- Star Paws "Christmas"
- Star Paws "Knights"
- Star Paws "Amazing Jobs"
As before, they're rib-ticklingly funny books (we always have a good giggle at the character names and some of the page 'category' names too - though we're not too sure about the shopping book's "Does my bum look big in this?" page! Eeks!)
The sticker books are excellent quality and very reasonably priced, perfect for little animal lovers who are bound to find a dozen or so favourite characters in every single title in the range. It goes without saying that as soon as Charlotte sees bunnies or guinea pigs, she lets out a huge loud satisfied "awwww!"

One of the things we particularly liked about the range is - bar a few 'specialised' stickers, it really doesn't matter where children stick each sticker on each page, so they can go completely crazy with their creativity. Page titles and sticker sheets are clearly labelled, so there's the bonus of allowing early readers to figure out what goes where themselves. A sticker book that needs minimum parental supervision? Definitely a win!
You can obtain the Star Paws range from all good indie booksellers, or directly from the Pan Macmillan UK website.
Charlotte's best bit: Percil the very cute little guy in 'Shopping' and all the cute outfits in the "Amazing Jobs" book
Daddy's Favourite bit: No fuss stickers, no over-complicated shapes, well cut sheets, and minimum of parental supervision required - followed by hour after hour of involvement and engagement while kids sticker themselves into a frenzy. Perfect!

Star Paws "Super Heroes" and "Party Time" Sticker Books (Macmillan Children's Books)
Have you ever wondered what a cute little bunny would look like soaring through the air in a cape? Or what an adorable little Dachshund looks like toffed up to the nines for a hot date? Well wonder no more, thanks to the Macmillan 'Star Paws' range of sticker books, with lots of different themes to suit all tastes.
We took a look at the 'Superheroes' and the 'Party Time' books, with an absolute ton of stickers to slap over some beautifully (and rather amusingly) photographed animals as they strut their funky stuff or save us from impending doom.
Hats off to the book designers for giving the sticker sheets perforations so they could easily be removed from the book to stick down easily, and also for making it clear which stickers go where (though if you're like us you probably won't mind cheating a bit and using different ones than recommended!)
The names in the book for the animals made us giggle (Elton Pong playing a mean piggy piano in the animal band was a particular favourite as was Jessie Hay and Cheryl Mole). Charlotte adored any of the scenes featuring either cute fluffy bunnies or guinea pigs so lots of cooing and 'ahhhing' ensued.
Charlotte's best bit: The Party Time book, lots of very fashionable threads for the animals. Cool!
Daddy's favourite bit: Brilliantly designed, easy to peel (and separate) sticker sheets and lots of brilliant funny animal names to keep kids giggling
