Poppy Cat books and toys

On seeing the life size Poppy Cat, Victoria made a beeline for the soft toys. She stayed hidden behind me whenever Poppy Cat came near and refused all attempts for a cuddle.  However, she was enthralled with the 48cm large talking Poppy Cat toy and would not put it down. Other toys in the range included the five piece figure set of Poppy and friends, Poppy Cat dominoes, the 22cm Poppy Cat toy, as well as the mini Poppy Cat and Alma soft toys for smaller hands. 

The two new titles, Poppy Cat: All Aboard and Poppy Cat: Blast Off caught Victoria's eye whilst on display. They are attractive story books; perfect for toddlers like Victoria who are full of energy and imagination and thus need stories that are going to keep their full attention. Victoria generally preferred to hold the book on her lap, pretending to read herself and so during Joanna Page's reading of the books, she was more interested in playing with the toys. 

Poppy Cat, a hit show on Nick Jr, ITV1, and CITV, is based on the award-winning children's books created by Lara Jones.

Poppy Cat books and toys are available from John Lewis.
