I'm a pediatric nurse practitioner - We give this book to infants birth to 4-6 months of age in our practice as part of Reach out and Read...their eyes light up when they see the pages! The high contrast black and white images, with the sparkle of color is eye catching, and the text is fun for the adults who are sharing the book with their child. The companion book about animals is also great. I was thrilled to find it to buy for our soon to be born grand baby -

Don't get me wrong, my baby likes both books. But this one really captures his attention for some reason. He especially likes gently stroking the page with the dragonfly (since 4 months--he's 8 months now) and when I make the buzzing and zuzzing noises. I liked it so much I gave it as a shower gift recently.

My 4 month old daughter can't take her eyes off the pictures in this book! It's hands down her favorite book because of the black and white pictures with splashes of metallic color. (I would give it a 5 out of 5 if it didn't classify snails and worms as bugs.)

Our baby likes this book. The high contrast, shiny metallic imagery grabbed her attention at three weeks old. Some recommended companion books I also suggest:Spots and Dots (Art-Baby)Tummy Time Playboard + Art Cards

I honestly thought this book was pretty lame when I first opened it. I knew black and white, high contrast images were attractive to babies, which is why I picked this up for my son. He is now 14 months and loves books. When I read this with him on my lap, I trace the picture with my finger as I read the words, and I do a little motion with some of them. For example, I poke him gently in the chest when I say "Bzz!" and I wiggle/bounce when we get to the worm's "wiggle, wiggle"; I make my fingers walk across the page for "scuttle, scuttle," and we wave "bye bye" to the butterfly. He loves it, and this book has become one of his favorites!

We bought both this book and Wee Gallery Art Cards for our twin daughters. The Art Cards are wonderful, but in the 'high-contrast, simple pictures' category, Hello Bugs wins hands down in our family. Part of the difference is the color accents and part of it is that, well, it's a book and it is easier to read in the same order every time.It never occurred to us when we bought the book, but two additional things make this book a favorite of our daughters. First, the bugs used in this book show up in many other children's books. In that these are our first kids, we hadn't paid much attention to other children's books, but the reinforcement is wonderful! The other thing that makes this book so great is tied to its simplicity. The words, while by no means profound, lend themselves perfectly to simple, repetitive motions that tie the text and pictures together (for instance, we wiggle them for the caterpillar). In that they both will do the motion we taught them for 'slide glide' (the snail page) when we mention snails, we think they enjoy the book! (oh, and they 'fight' over it, which I suppose is about the best endorsement a children's book can get)

Book that has black and white brain stimulus. Names bugs, and has option to do sounds with them. The foil inlays foreach bug seem to caputure my older baby. I like this series and bought others once I had this one. My son brings this for me to read almost every day.

So cute! My 7 month old daughter loves this book just as much as she loved "Hello, Animals". Of all the black and white contrast books out there- these books by Smriti Prasadam are most definitely my favorite for baby!
