Summary
This is an interactive novelty book from Igloo Books' Wiggly Fingers range. A soft plush finger puppet of a friendly Red Monster is built into the book, and grown-ups poke their fingers through to make the monster's legs wiggle across each page. As you turn the pages you join Red Monster in Monsterland, helping him poke, tickle and play with all his monster friends. It is designed as a hands-on cuddle-and-play book for babies and toddlers.
Why is this book popular?
Parents love finger-puppet books like this one because they turn story time into a game full of giggles and gentle physical play. The built-in puppet keeps very young children engaged, encourages eye contact and interaction, and makes the book feel like a toy. Igloo's Wiggly Fingers series is a popular gift for babies and first-birthday presents for exactly this reason.
Characters
The central figure is Red Monster, the plush finger puppet that guides the play, along with his friendly monster friends in Monsterland. These are simple, cheerful characters rather than a detailed story cast, existing mainly to power the tickling and playing game.
Illustrations
The artwork is bright, chunky and cartoon-like in the friendly Igloo Books house style, with bold colours and rounded, non-scary monsters suited to the youngest readers. The plush puppet element sits at the centre of each spread so the illustrations frame the interactive play.
How this book helps child development
- Bonding and interaction: the puppet invites playful, face-to-face time between adult and child.
- Sensory play: the soft plush element engages touch alongside looking and listening.
- Fine motor cues: encourages babies to reach for, grab and explore the wiggly puppet.
- Early language: repeated tickle-and-play words build first vocabulary and anticipation.
- Love of books: makes a baby's earliest book experiences fun and positive.
