The Game of Light cover

Come and join the fun with master illustrator and author, Hervé Tullet!

Experience the magic of Hervé Tullet in The Game of Light, a title from his much-loved Let’s Play Games series of interactive board books for readers aged 3-6 years.

This is an inventive game of storytelling with shadows – use the light of a torch to make flowers bloom on your ceiling and fish swim across your walls by shining it through the clever ‘holes’ in this book’s boards.

The book features Tullet’s unique hand lettering and a vibrant riot of ‘holes’ and illustrations. Beloved by children the world over since they first appeared in print, each book in this series works like a game, occupying busy minds and little fingers, and stimulating thought and imagination.

Ages 3-6

'Instantly engage the child from the very beginning … it is clear to see that they go far beyond the realms of everyday books; enlightening, inspiring and exciting children.' – Family Fun Guide

'Hervé's work is a sumptuous visual assault to the eyes, a stylised celebration of colour, of pattern, of textures … the brevity of text is precisely what brings the books to life.' – Junior
