Happy Baby: Animals

This book is so terrific for little ones that my grandchildren wore out the first copy causing me to buy a second! A delightful book for babies to age 4.

My two-year-old loves this book. It has been one of her favorites for months now. She likes to match the pictures of animals in the book with her toy animals.

We bought this book for our daughter when she was about 7 months old. She has been especially interested in it for the past few months (from 10-13 months of age). I think she is learning about turning the pages by herself and this board book is really great for that since it has so many pages and lots of pictures to keep her interested. We hold it and she flips through it looking and pointing at the pictures she likes best. The cover is a bit bigger than the pages, so it is easy to open. We love this book (and others by Priddy).

Wanting to introduce my young daughter to the world of books, my wife reached for this book. Made with sturdy cardboard pages, the book is filled with lots of bright and clear pictures of animals, with simple words and concepts to move a young reader along. Now, please note that the title is actually "Happy Baby: Animals," and only some of the pictures are of baby animals. But, we did find this to be a nice book, one that my own baby likes looking through. My wife and I highly recommend this book!

My twins received this book among many other books when they were born, and this was the one they reached out for first. From early as 3 months old, I would flip through the book page by page, and show them the pictures and say the names of the animals, and they would look at the pictures and really seemed to pay attention. As they grew a little older, they would get excited when they saw certain animals, like the lion or the butterfly. I think my twins prefer books with photographs instead of drawings, and so Happy Baby Animals really captured their interest. Also, the small size of the book is suited for their little hands and they can grasp the book and turn the pages for themselves. My twins are now one year old, and though the pages have become a little battered, I am still getting mileage out of this book.
