I Spy Little Book

Even though several of the reviews say that these books are too young for any child over the age of 3, I disagree. We have 3 of these books (this one, I Spy Wheels, I Spy Letters) and my son, age 5, is still enjoying them, but in just a different way. We now play "I Spy" the traditional way with..."I Spy something that is yellow and floats." And then I have to guess what he is talking about (i.e. boat). And then I do the same. We continue until we have described everything in each of the pages. Yes, it takes a long time to go through the books, but it is so wonderful for his critical thinking skills. Any now my 21 month old daughter gets to enjoy these books. They just don't wear out! One of the best gifts around!!

My 18 month old would read no other books than the I Spy series for a whole week! They have shown him in a simple way the association between words and pictures. He adores them!

Keep this book on hand for a real toddler treasure hunt. Take it with you to restaurants and car trips. It's fantastic. We have devoured this one. We've discovered a new one for even a younger child that is not to missed either; WHAT IS ROUND? In both, the photographs literally pop off the page. Keeps them happy while they are learning and discovering objects in their world!

This is my daughter's favorite book. I like it because at 8 months she loved flipping through the pages and pointing to all the pictures, and now that she's 14 months she likes the "I Spy" aspect of it. It's definitely a book that has grown with her. A great gift!

When I ordered this book I thought it would be a little beyond my 18 month old's ability. I was amazed when she was able to find the hidden objects - and delighted in doing so! I can see where it will easily grow with her over the next year. This was more than a book - an interactive puzzle!
