5.0 out of 5 stars Over and over again 22 May 2007
By Babanangu
Format:Hardcover
My daughter LOVES all Topsy and Tim's books. She reads them over and over and over and over again. I have found them very useful for example for her visits to the doctor and the dentist. Furthermore she relates a lot of the things that she does to what Topsy and Tim also do.

Really they are great.

5.0 out of 5 stars Topsy 20 Feb 2013
By Kay
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
My 4yr old has been having swimming lessons for 6 weeks and was getting frustrated as he was lagging behind the others who had been going just that little bit longer. This worked a treat, as Tim was a little bit behind Topsy in his swimming technique. We read it together a few times before my sons next lesson and WOW! no armbands. So proud.

5.0 out of 5 stars helped my son learn to swim 24 Sep 2007
By E. Hepples
Format:Hardcover
My 2 year old was frightened of the water and panicked too much in the pool to listen to guidance. Reading this book over a few weeks, helped build his confidence around water, and teach him the basics before he got in the pool. He now loves going swimming and always refers back to the book and copies what Topsy & Tim do.

Topsy and Tim books are very popular with our toddler, and they offer good reinforcement for new experiences - such as learning to swim in this case.
