Find Spot at the Hospital

A Lift-the-Flap Story

Summary

It's Spot's first time going to hospital, as he visits his poorly friend Tom. What will it be like?

In this new lift-the-flap story, Spot and Mum head to the hospital to see his friend Tom, who has hurt his leg. But on their way to the Children's Ward, Spot disappears! Where did he go?

Toddlers will enjoy joining Spot as he is introduced to the different areas of a hospital for the first time - as well as the doctors and nurses that they he meets on his visit. This new story is full of the unexpected surprises and gentle humour that makes the original Where's Spot? a children's classic. An added early learning spread at the end of the book also teaches children key hospital-themed vocabulary from the story.

With interactive flaps to train fine motor skills, and an adventure that sparks curiosity and imagination, Find Spot at the Hospital is perfect for early learning and play.

Eric Hill's Where's Spot? was the first ever lift-the-flap book - and his ground-breaking innovation continues to delight and surprise readers with interactive fun. Spot has now been a trusted character in early learning for over 40 years, selling over 65 million books worldwide.

About the author

Eric Hill

Eric Hill (1927-2014) started his artistic career as an art studio messenger and from there went on to become a cartoonist and eventually an art director at a leading advertising agency. In 1978 Eric made up a story about a small puppy to read to his son at bedtime and Spot was born. The success of his first bestselling lift-the-flap classic Where's Spot? in 1980 convinced him to become a full-time author, and his Spot books have been enjoyed by children around the world ever since. In 2008 he was awarded an OBE for services to children's literacy.
