This book does have some nice pictures, but I don't like the way some of the animals are named, for example calf instead of cow, kitten instead of cat.... I think very young children find it easier to say cat, cow instead of kitten and calf. There were too many of these types of identifiying names. I'd stick with a book that has the basic names and work from there as my child gets older.
I ordered several books when my son was just a few weeks old and this is his favorite book. I call it his "first book". It is great because every other page has a white background for the stark contrast needed for newborns, yet every OTHER page has a different color background. The book has great photos and color. Recommended for anyone looking for a good book to introduce to a newborn. I ended up buying several more books by Bright Baby....
I love these bright baby book to teach vocabulary. They have great clear illustration with appropriate words and most importantly one per page. I think this makes it less confusing when they are just learning. When my daughter was 1 she would point at the pictures and I'd tell her the names. Then we'd play where I'd ask her where something is and she'd find the page. Now at 27 months she goes through the whole book naming the pictures and we talk about them. I give her adjectives. So the books have definitely retained her interest. They are nice sturdy board books that have held together very well. Unlike some other board books she tore apart at the spine.
I got this along with the other 2 bright baby books I saw on here (colors and first words) for my book loving 18 month old. he absolutely LOVES them! we have other books similar, but they all have several items per page and he seems to really love that each page is only one thing. He focuses right on it and says all the words he knows and animal sounds. :)
Our little man LOVES Priddy books. He enjoys examining the real pictures and has loved them since infancy. He likes the animals book and we practice making animal noises as we read through the book. I recommend this book and all Priddy books!
GET THIS!!! We have so many kids books that have not lasted the test of time. This book is quality. Our kids love the taste of these books...errr I mean, our kids can't actually eat these books because of their quality design. We have a house full of partially eaten and ripped kids books, but this brand is the best. And as a responsible parent, my kids are learning. Which is nice.
Great first book for babies! Nice firm (board) pages, a single image and single word on each page. I was surprised how quickly my 9 month grandson latched onto the book and tried his best to turn the pages. It's very exciting to me to see him interested in books at so young an age and I hope this early experience will help to plant a seed of curiosity that will last his whole life.
I love this series. They are very durable. I've read them to both my children in their infancy. They ,over looking at the pictures. I read it to them everyday, and they both picked up the words very quickly. My oldest daughter loves that she can 'read' this book to her little sister.
