Mommy Loves Me

I bought this book and "Daddy Loves Me" because I was feeling sentimental, but they are wonderful books for young children. The story is very realistic, the pictures are very detailed and prompt a lot of discussion, and the flaps are intriguing. My 11 month old loves the books and can work the flaps easily. The small size is nice. The books are very hard to destuct.

Although this book doesn't look like much, it is well worth the money. We got it as a gift when the baby was born, and I thought for sure it would be a dud. Was I wrong - my baby loves it. He LOVES to lift the flaps, and knows just where the flaps are on each page. When I tire of reading the same 10 pages over and over, he "reads" it to himself, turning the pages and lifting the flaps. The same publisher also put out Daddy Loves Me and Goodnight Blessings - all along the same lines, although daddy doesn't do as much work as mommy :-); he loves them, too. the pocket size makes them very portable, and the fact that they are board books makes them nearly indestructible. do yourself a favor, and buy all three.
