Get Dressed, Belly Button!
Interactive & Activity Books & Packs
Dress a child with each page turn of this novelty board book—toes in socks, arms in sleeves, tuck that belly button inside!—until everyone is snuggled up warm and ready to go.
It’s time to go out, so let’s get dressed: tug snug, wriggle jiggle into socks, t-shirt, shoes and finally all wrapped up in a big coat.
Page by page, child and adult put the clothes on together until everyone is ready.
Wait—what else do we need before we can go out? A great big kiss!
Now we’re dressed, from top to tummy to toes!
Get Dressed, Belly Button! is a cheerful and original book that turns wrapping up warm into a game for the whole family.

Reviews
With pages that flip up from the bottom, little ones can dress this adorable (and calm) tot by adding an item of clothing with each turn. Brunellière’s inviting, graphically simple images work as de facto paper dolls for toddlers. Brief, read aloud–friendly text (“Beep beep, belly button tucks into a top”) names each upcoming article of clothing, from socks to winter hat. The companion, Good Night, Belly Button, follows a similar formula and allows the reader to tuck a toddler into bed.
The Horn Book Magazine
Wake up! It’s time to get dressed with this adorable interactive book. It features flaps that lift up to dress the child, accompanied with short descriptions of what’s happening on each image. This is such a fun book that’s perfect for encouraging a sense of independence and for making getting dressed fun. I love the text, which feels exactly as if a parent or caregiver was speaking. Brilliant!
