Introduce the littlest learners to color, patterns, and numbers with this interactive pumpkin-shaped board book by legendary artist Yayoi Kusama

Join artist Yayoi Kusama on a journey into her playful world of dots! Shaped like Kusama’s beloved pumpkin sculptures, Lots of Dots introduces babies and toddlers to early learning concepts through rhythmic, read-aloud text and bold visual design. As children turn the pages, they follow a cheerful journey through Kusama’s famous dots – one dot, two dots, big dots, small dots – discovering changes in size, number, and color along the way.

This vibrant, brilliantly designed board book features bright colors, high-contrast illustrations, sparkles, shiny foil polka dots, and clever die-cuts, creating a tactile, sensory reading experience for little hands and growing minds. The book concludes with a short, child-friendly introduction to Kusama’s work, encouraging curiosity about artists and creative expression.

Eye-catching, educational, and a joy to read, Lots of Dots is an exuberant introduction to early concepts and the world of art.

Biografie

Yayoi Kusama is recognised as one of the most important artists of her time, with an international career spanning more than half a century. Born in 1929, she was raised in Matsumoto in central Japan where her family owned a large seed nursery. It was here that Kusama began painting and drawing at age ten. Throughout her career, Kusama returned to the organic motifs she depicted as a child growing up among fields of flowers and pumpkins.
