Misleading quality status

This book was marked good condition but it should have been acceptable. Writing on pages and just not what a "good condition" status should be.

Yeah

My son usually can't sit still for long periods of time and this book is PERFECT. He loves my exaggerated pronounciation of the text and the pictures are big, bright, and appealing. His favorite book, by far!!

Bold and bright, early introduction to contemporary art

This is a bright and exciting book (it's on our list for the grandparents as a "not-before-bedtime" book) with fun pictures for toddlers. Our toddler loves to look through the pictures and although she is WAY too young to think about reading, the words are also very appealing and large and attract her attention too.The drawings are bright and bold and show children of diverse skin colors (including green and blue) in outlandish clothes that are way too big for them. The underlying message is one of diversity, but it's not sappy or pushy. Keith Haring was one of the great artists of our time, and it's tremendous to have a children's book that introduces children to his art in a casual way. This is not a "let's study the art of great artists" book, it's just a children's book filled with great illustrations that happen to be by a great artist. I suspect that many of the children who are enjoying this book as toddlers or preschoolers may have one of those tremendous "ah-ha" moments five or ten years from now when they end up on a school field trip to an art gallery and think, "I KNOW that artist."

Adorable and Fun!

This book is very cute. Its size and the bright colors grab babies' attention. The pictures and writing are bright and big. Although my daughter is not yet 1, I think she'll enjoy it for a couple of years as she learns colors, articles of clothing, etc. Definitely different from typical childrens books and lots of fun.

Terrific colorful book for babies/toddlers

What a terrific book! The colors and bright and the lines are so thick. My 7 month old lights up when I read it to her. It's not only thick and sturdy, but it's nice and big. I've already bought this book for several other mommies. I just wish he had made more books for children - they're wonderful.

An attention grabbing book for the diaper set

Big is a book of wonderfully bright, contrasting colors and bold letters. Each page contains a different combination of vivid colors and an illustration of a person wearing a big item of clothing. Blue shoes, green jeans, purple jackets and others will keep the attention of even a newborn. Older toddlers can identify colors and read some fo the words, although "enormous" and "gigantic" are a little advanced for an early reader. Overall, the book is graphically attention grabbing and will provide enjoyment for parents and youngsters to read together.
