Customer Reviews

Excellent book for infants!

My 4-month old is intrigued with the pictures of the toddler faces and frequently "reads" along with me. I have ordered several in this series by Roberta Grobel Intrater as he enjoys looking at the animated faces she photographs. I would highly recommend.

Fascinated by Faces

I might never have picked this book, since I tend to pick out "cute stories", but babies love looking at close-up photos of baby faces. Our pediatrician gives us a book at every visit; I think my son received this one at around 6 months of age. It was one of his favorites for many months. The text is very simple: "Let's take a bath...and blow a bubble or two! I love playing with water, don't you?" Each page has a close-up of a baby's face, with each baby playing with bubbles or a bath toy, etc. (Babies of just about every skin tone appear in the book). My son is now age 15 months, and still enjoys pulling out this book from time to time.
