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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy is this book popular?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eParents 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCharacters\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIllustrations\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow this book helps child development\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBonding and interaction:\u003c\/strong\u003e the puppet invites playful, face-to-face time between adult and child.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSensory play:\u003c\/strong\u003e the soft plush element engages touch alongside looking and listening.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFine motor cues:\u003c\/strong\u003e encourages babies to reach for, grab and explore the wiggly puppet.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEarly language:\u003c\/strong\u003e repeated tickle-and-play words build first vocabulary and anticipation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLove of books:\u003c\/strong\u003e makes a baby's earliest book experiences fun and positive.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSimilar books in this category\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\"Where's Mrs Ladybird?\" (Felt Flaps) by Ingela P.
