A Solid Choice!

This book is sturdy, durable, visually interesting, well-designed and a great place to launch an infant's interest in books, photos and naming the real-life items he/she sees every day. Bright Baby First Words is part of a wonderful series of board books which includes Bright Baby Animals and Bright Baby Colors (both of which I also highly recommend). Rather than confusing an infant's eyes with an array of images all at once, the nice thing about these books is that they are laid out very simplistically with one photograph and word per page on a solid-colored background. No clutter and no distractions. For the infant who is just starting to point at everything in the world and seek "identification tags", this entire series is the perfect first set of books. Ever since he was an infant, my son has kept coming back to these books. I think it is because they can be easily adapted to teach a variety of concepts and they evolve to meet his constantly changing points of interest. I give this book five stars for a variety of reasons including the simple visual images it provides, the focused learning it encourages, and the variety of ways in which it can be used to teach not just words, but also other concepts such as colors. With its beautiful photography of real-life images set against simple, solid backgrounds, this book is definitely a solid choice with which to start your child's home library!

Fun Book - My Toddlers Love It!

Gorgeous, colorful pictures of everyday items. My toddlers go to it again and again.

Great buy!!!

This book is fantastic! We have several "first words" books and this is my 20 month old's favorite by far. The fact that each word is tied to a photograph of an object, rather than an artist's rendering, is much easier for him to process and understand. So not only can he say the corresponding word to each picture as we page though the book, but then when he encounters the real object, his mind makes the association much more quickly...helping him to learn words at a faster pace! Highly recommend this!

Good for toddlers too!

My 23 month old loves this book! Bright contrasting colors, simple concepts, and vivid pictures keep her attention while I read to her. I also like the sturdy construction, definitely toddler proof. We're planning on getting the other books in the series for her birthday.
