We received your Baby’s First Library Gift Basket when our daughter was born and it was my favourite gift. It was so beautifully presented and the books themselves are just gorgeous. A great idea for a gift!
Your gift baskets are now my go-to gift when someone has a baby. The books in the Baby’s First Library Gift Basket are the books my wife and I loved reading to our kids when they were small. Brings back all the memories. Great choices!
Reading is so important and such a joy and I’m all for starting to read aloud as early as possible. Your gift baskets are just beautiful and are always received with lots of wows! I’ve just ordered my fourth, this time for a new little one-year-old.
Our Hairy Maclary Book Gift Basket contains a selection of six gorgeous board books about Hairy Maclary from Donaldson's Dairy and his hilarious friends.
The books in this gift basket are wonderful gifts for babies and small children up to the age of four, making the gift basket the perfect gift for a new baby, baby shower or birthday.
With exuberant artwork and bouncy rhymes, New Zealand author Lynley Dodd's classic books about mischievous Hairy Maclary and his friends are a visual delight and some of the most rewarding books for children and adults to read out loud.
The selection of books in our Hairy Maclary Book Gift Basket has been carefully chosen to delight little ones and to enhance brain development by providing a variety of listening experiences. The emphasis is on the rhyme, rhythmic language and repetition which babies and small children love so much and which is so important for stimulating their love of language and their awareness of how language works.
Keep your basket of Hairy Maclary books close at hand to allow easy access to the books for little ones and to encourage impromptu read-aloud sessions.

MATERIALS
Our beautiful baskets are made especially for The Book Basket Company tto our specifications and are sturdy enough to stand up to a bit of less-than-gentle handling from little ones. The cute liners are sewn for us in Canberra by a lovely lady who operates her small business from home.
Basket: white-painted cane
Basket liner: 100% cotton
Jellycat Bashful Puppy: polyester, plastic bead filling
CARE
Your Hairy Maclary Book Gift Basket is designed to stand up to normal wear-and-tear and to handling by young children:
Basket:Â wipe gently with a damp cloth.
Liner:Â wash gently in cold water, if needed. Line dry. Do not tumble dry as the cotton will shrink.
Jellycat Bashful Puppy:Â spot clean with a damp cloth to remove any marks. Can be hand-washed.
Books: board books are designed to be handled by babies and small children and we encourage this as it’s an important part of how little ones get to know and love books. Yes, the books are likely to become a bit worn but we think that’s OK!
