My 17 month old LOVES this book! Most of the classic Dr. Seuss books are too long & wordy for her (and she really loves reading), so this is a great introduction to the silliness. Plus, this book is very interactive (pets have hair, drink pink ink, play games, etc.) Would definitely recommend it!
I dont know who loves this book more, me or my son. He is so captivated by all of the exciting textures, flaps, fur, etc. We picked this book up on a whim, never imagining I would be looking for every other Dr. Seuss Nursery book to add to our collection. It captivates him nightly and I am so pleased that he truly enjoys reading it and hope his love for reading continues. Thank you Dr. Seuss Nursery!!
This is a great adaptation of Dr. Seuss! I love One Fish, Two Fish... so this book has great parts of it and great interactive flaps, string, fur and feathers. My 10 month old absolutely loves turning the pages and knows what is on each page and looks forward to playing with the different items! I hope this is the beginning of his love for Dr. Seuss & rhymes!
Although this board book is very clever and well done, it has parts to it that a child under 3 years old will not be able to handle with the care it needs. There are great textures for touching and an adaptation of a Dr Seuss story, which are always fun. I would definitely recommend it, just not too early.
My son doesn't understand anything, but he likes the rhythm and the "toys" in this book. He's had it read to him almost every night (starting when he was maybe 3 months, to now). He is currently 10 months old.
Here's one adaptation I can live with. Unlike Harold's Birthday Surprise (Harold & the Purple Crayon), which I felt missed the tone (and wonderment) of the original, this one feels right. Dr. Seuss books are, after all, supposed to be nonsensical and filled with color. The text is directly from (and properly attributed to) One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish, so there's no complaint there.This is a "Touch & Feel" book with different tactile textures on each page: fur, flaps, feathers, slide tabs, Mylar, and cardboard rings. This board book of pettable pets is remarkably well made: the pages are very sturdy and resist bending, and none of the tactile features has ever ripped. Believe me: that's impressive.I wouldn't go so far as to say this is a *necessary* purchase for your baby's nursery--the classic Dr. Seuss stories themselves can be enjoyed from an early age--but nor is this a book to toss in the donate or sell box. This would make a nice addition to a baby shower gift.
My daughter is seven months old and she LOVES this book!Some of it is a little more appropriate for a baby that is a little older; one page has a flap where some kids are watching sheep out their window, and every time we get to that page my daughter wants to pull the flap off of the page. An older baby would know to just lift it.She also tugs pretty hard on the hair and the fur, but it seems to be holding up quite well. The different textures really get her excited--she has trouble deciding whether to be reluctant to let me turn the pages or whether to be fascinated by whatever page comes next.This book is definitely a winner at our house. Highly recommended!
I bought this for my granddaughter. She is 5 months old and loves this book. I hold her in my lap and we read this book together. Ok, I'm exaggerating, but she loves the pictures and turns the pages for me. I was letting her feel the different objects on the pages, but now she does it on her own. The pages are nice and thick so when she decides to put them in her mouth, they are still look as new as the day the book arrived. I bought this book a couple of months ago and she still loves for me to read it to her. I will have to say, it is her favorite of all the books she has. The bright colored pictures and objects to feel, hold her attention. It is a wonderful book.
