A greag book for toddlers and young children

This is a great book in the Eye Openers series. This book contains pictures and a short paragraph on each subject; kitten, duckling, leopard cub, wallaby, puppy, fawn and gorilla. My two chilren ages 2 and 4 just love this book.

Great Book

I actually had to buy this as a replacement for the library. It's a cute book, we like the animal pictures and it is educational.

Very cute book- lots of fun!

My two year old really enjoys this book. The flaps seem durable and have allowed for many hours of fun. Great pictures, great book!

DK Book of Baby Animals - a review

This is a cute, sturdy, medium-sized board book that is like many others in that it shows pictures of kittens, ducklings, tiger cubs, puppies, polar bear cubs, elephant babies, and bear cubs. What is different about this book is that each type of baby is given two pages. On the first page there is a large, up-close picture of a baby animal, and on the second page are three smaller pictures showing the same or similar babies engaged in an activity, such as sleeping, running, or exploring. The pictures are labeled below so that a parent/reader can point at the word when speaking the action. On the pages for the ducklings, for example, there is a wonderful picture of a sweet little yellow duckling swimming. The water is clear, so that you can see him both above and below the water. This is helpful because some children don't immediately grasp that a duck continues beneath the surface (lol). The second page has three pictures, showing different ducklings, 'tumbling over', 'waddling', and 'floating'. Similarly the puppy page shows a big picture of a puppy sleeping, with three subsequent pictures showing a puppy: bounding, licking and playing. Four and a half Stars. Besides just nice pictures, this book offers a reader the chance to point out baby animals engaged in activities with the word below, enhancing the human baby's book experience.

My 11-month-old loves this book!

This book is loaded with colorful pictures of baby animals. My 11-month-old loves to lift the "flaps" and find new pictures.
