This is a marvelous little book. It was the first book my daughter loved when she was a tiny baby (around 8 months), who couldn't yet talk but could thrust the book at me to read it again and again and again. The rhymes are simple, but give a creative reader opportunities to imitate the animal sounds (meow, meow...bow wow wow, etc.), so the book is both a nice introduction to the fun of language and an early education in animal sounds. Every time one of my friends has a baby, I look for a copy, to share the fun. The book should be brought back into print.
A wonderful first book to read to your child

This book is simple with realistic pictures of the animals that make the sounds and ends with a loving, " And Mommy says, "I love you." My oldest daughter loves this book and is actually leaning on me for a hug before I even get to the last page. We've read it so much we have worn out the cover.
