ABOUT

A first-of-its-kind tummy time book inspired by papel picados—featuring high-contrast art of animals from Latin America!

Infants have limited capabilities with vision upon birth and respond well to high-contrast images, which is why this vibrant book is perfect for their young and growing minds. This unique accordion-style board book—inspired by papel picados and featuring animals from Latin America—provides developmentally appropriate visual stimuli for your baby’s visual development, while exposing them to Spanish vocabulary words.

The animals featured in El Tummy Time include:
  • Jaguar
  • Sloth
  • Toucan
  • Tortoise
  • Anteater
  • And more!

This book is meant to be functional for your child's many different learning needs as well as versatile for any space. The unique accordion-style format is perfect for tummy time, allowing your child to unfold the pages and stare and play with them, either with you or on their own.

STANDARD, PRIMARY, DM AND VARIANT COVERS

Standard and Primary covers are widely available through general retailers. They often have higher print runs and can be cheaper, especially during sales.

In contrast, Direct Market (DM) and variant covers are primarily sold in comic shops. DM editions tend to have more limited availability and may be more valuable to collectors.

The main differences lie in artwork style, availability, price, and collector appeal. Ultimately, the choice between standard and variant covers depends on personal preference, budget, and individual collecting goals.
