ISBN 0307175782 - Cute, just not spectacular or particularly inventive, In the Garden is part of the Baby Dinosaurs set, introducing very young readers to their first words. Nouns are highlighted in this book, and each noun is pictured on a page with a brightly colored, Barney-like dinosaur. It seems like a bit of jumping on the bandwagon and my youngest Barney fan friend is unimpressed. It is a board book, and sturdy, which is a nice thing for the not so nimble fingers of toddlers. - AnnaLovesBooks

"In the Garden" by Mark Haddon is a charming introduction to "first words" for toddlers. Each page contains a colorful smiling baby dinosaur participating in an activity with a one-word subtitle of the action. (For example, a bright blue triceratops clutching a bunch of carrots while happily munching on one of them, highlights the word, "carrots.") The sturdy cardboard stock construction makes the book easy for little hands to grasp and turn the pages. This book is by far my 2 1/2-year-old daughter's favorite bedtime story, as she eagerly helps her daddy identify exactly what those baby dinosaurs are doing .
