My 2-year old is really into Leslie Patricelli's books right now. He loves this one and almost has it memorized word for word. The character is so cute and so much like my son. He really relates to this one and still laughs everytime we read it. I can't wait for more from this author.

My son loves this baby character from Leslie Patricelli's other books. In this one, the baby can't find his binky (a common scenario around our house!). He proceeds to look for his binky in all sorts of places, like his cereal (which he dumps out) and his potty. It makes my son laugh. He loves when the baby finally finds his binky in the end.
