Spot Series

by
(159 reviews)

The Spot series has delighted generations of small readers since the 1980s, and we can't help but recommend it as one of our firm favourites. Written and illustrated by Eric Hill, the series has been translated in over 60 languages and has grown into an entire franchise, with TV shows, music albums and more. 

Meet Spot, the sweet yellow puppy with a spot on his side and a brown tip on his tail. He is curious as ever and loves exploring the world around him. In each book, he discovers and learns something new, from new words, colours and numbers, to the great outdoors on walks and holidays, as well as other general first experiences like picnics, playtime and visiting new places. The books are available in so many different formats as well, including lift-the-flap and board books besides the classic picture book format.

If you enjoyed these books and would like more picture book series like this, Clifford is another great classic to turn to. Or check out our best books about dogs blog post for recommendations across different age ranges.
