Customer Reviews

excellent reading for the very young

A sweet book, beautifully illustrated for the very young. The text is short and describes baby's actions on her birthday (although you only find out it's her birthday at the end). My 2 years old loved it. She referred a lot to the illustrations and identified with the birthday bit. Recommended as bed-time reading.

Simple and sweet

First published in the mid 1950's this book is filled with lovely vintage style illustrations, that are really appealing. The text is simple for a very young child, with only a few words a page, this book's main focus are the pictures, and though it is not a first word book, it could be read like one. This book is for toddlers or younger.
