My baby loves these babies
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
At 18 months, this was one of my daughter's favorite books. "Baby" is one of her favorite words, and the (human) babies at the beginning and end of the book give lots of opportunities to use it. The text has some lovely rhymes and rhythms, and Dyer's watercolors are beautiful and soft. A great bedtime book.

Great book woth gorgeous illustrations - would prefer it in a smaller format though so my daughter could turn the pages herself. The book is too oversized for a small child to handle, but great for a parent to read aloud. Great art throughout!
Beautiful animal illustrations

My 22-month old loves any book that includes animal illustrations and this is a recent favorite. His favorite part is the last page which introduces all the animal babies that were pictured throughout the book. He likes to repeat each name as we say them. However, he does seem to be disturbed by the picture of the mother lion carrying her cub in her mouth. He always wants to look at that picture the longest and he keeps saying "Bite" over and over. We've tried to explain that this doesn't hurt the baby, but it still bothers him. There is also a picture of a mother crocodile carrying her baby in her mouth, but for some reason, this doesn't bother him. Otherwise, we really enjoy this book.
Great book, gorgeous illustrations!

This is my almost-two year old daughter's favorite book these days. She asks for it every night ("Babies Onna Go!") and she loves to point out all the animals, and she "reads" (says) the last word on each page. She now recognizes the previously unfamiliar animals (bats, opossums, etc.) when she sees them in pictures or books elsewhere. The story is cute, the rhyming is appealing, but it's the gorgeous watercolor illustrations by Jane Dyer that really make this book an all-time favorite. If your child is attracted to animals and beautiful artwork, buy this book!
