Customer Reviews

We Love Helen Oxenbury's Illustrations

We have "The Big Baby Book" by Helen Oxenbury, and I was so impressed by her illustrations that I searched for more of her products. I got a couple of copies of this book as presents for friends. The story is about a boy and his puppy and how they grow. There's a lot of text, by the way. The recommended ages for this book are 4-8 unlike "The Big Baby Book". Of course the illustrations are lovely.
