Lookie at the busy book that Forty-Two Roads made!  The theme is “Close Your Clothes” and it’s filled with snippets of actual clothing items for the child to practice buttoning, zipping, buckling, etc.  My favorite page is probably the shoes.  Did she really applique the tops of a pair of canvas shoes to the page?  WOW!  See more photos at Forty-Two Roads.
