Canvas or cloth children's books

[weliveintheforest]

Anyone seen canvas books? Know where I can get them? Know if they are a good thing to buy?
My Aunt and UNcle were telling me they had them for their children, but the only one I have found is a vintage one on ebay.
I am also looking for good cloth books with an actual story, anyone have any good ones?
Thanks

I made a couple for DD that I found at the material store. It comes on a bolt with it all lined out and you just cut it out and sew it together--- you don't have to know how to sew too much to do it.

We had a nice cloth book for dd when she was little. It didn't have a story, but it had something to do on each page - a button to undo, a zipper to zip, a pocket to put something in, etc. It kept her quietly busy (quiet except for the "velcro" page, ha ha) all through a friend's wedding.

Is that the kind of thing you might be interested in? I've seen these in fairly mainstream catalogs (and some non-mainstream ones, too).
