My son’s favorite book at ages 2-3.
Published by Kim s , 3 years ago
This was my son’s favorite children’s book at age 2 and 3. The love of an extended family, the sounds and feeling of being outside in nature, and the challenges of communicating when you are a baby are all part of this beautiful and heartwarming and fun book.
One of our favorites!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
I discovered this book completely by accident at a book sale when I was in college several years ago. I fell in love with it as a 22 year old about to graduate, and I saved it "for my kids someday." I'm so glad I did! Now that I have two precious daughters, it's become a favorite. The pictures are delightful - they're realistic in portrayals, yet whimsical in execution. The sweet, obviously caring (without being super sappy!) family is shown in a wholesome busy environment, working and playing together on a cloudy morning. The rhythm of the words is catchy - a bit silly and a bit witty; a wonderful combination to keep both a toddler and parents' attention! :) I absolutely love reading this book out loud! I will definitely be on the lookout for more of Wong Herbert Yee's work.
Catchy lyrics and a wonderful story.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
This gentle story is full of catchy lyrics, which I found myself reciting to my infant - "Why do you cry, sweetie pie? A warm bottle will pacify."Babies and toddlers will love the rhymes and bright watercoloured illustrations.I also enjoyed this work because the family depicted in the illustrations is Asian Amercian, even though the book has nothing to do with Asian American themes. Coming from a mixed race (Asian-Caucasian) family, I appreciate the true-to-life portrayal, and that my child can see his own reflection in such a book.
