What Does Violet See? Birds and Nests (Baby Einstein)

I have a one year old and I have been reading her Baby Einstein "Animal Homes". I love this book and so I took a chance on this one, "What does Violet See? Birds and Nests". I absolutely love this. First of all, it captures my little one's attention as from the beginning I have been taking her on walks to see birds and nests and listen to the sounds of nature. She loves the real pictures at the end of the book, the close up of all the animals when violet uses her binoculars, and she loves touching the realistic feather at the end. Job well done.

My son has always loved Violet and her adventures. This book is colorful, interesting and includes real photos at the end. My son is 5 now, and when he chooses his books he still brings me the ones about Violet!

Violet loves looking at birds and their nests through her binoculars - and loves photographing what she finds! My 18 month old daughter adores the Baby Einstein books and this is the newest addition to our growing collection, and our first of the Violet "series". The way the actual photographs of birds and nests are encorporated into the story (as pictures that Violet takes with her trusty camera) is wonderful. I especially love the "touch and feel" feather toward the end (my daughter likes to 'scratch' it)...a pleasant surprise as none of our other Baby Einstein books have this feature. But I particularly love Nadeem Zaidi's vivid/bold illustrations, which I believe is the key to the success of the Baby Einstein books (in the eyes of the youngsters who adore them). My daughter loves to point to the pictures as we read to her and she enjoys trying to read this story back to Mommy & Daddy (pointing at pictures while she babbles and turns the pages)). This is one of her new favorite stories - it is one of three books accompanying us on our upcoming airplane trip (and we've got hundreds of books to choose from)!I am anxious to see the other Violet books as this one is definitely a keeper!
