Repurposed books (and more suggestions welcomed!)

My sister was given some plush flannel books that are about 7 or 8 inches tall and were kind of beat up.... but I saw the potential:

What the books looked liked before:




Here's the final product:

I removed the paper pages and flanneled over the inside:

I made these worms for a matching game:

Rhyme:

Which fruit is your home?
(Use Baby Sign Language while saying the colors)


 So you can appreciate the plushness of the books

 I WELCOME ideas on other ways to use these books!  They are pretty neat in person.  Thanks!
