I bought this book for my 2-year old. It has few pages, and lots of pictures of the different animals. We talk about the sounds the animals make, their names and their babies. There are also drawings of other animals throughout the book. The only thing I found odd was that they didn't include goats! Go figure! All in all, my son enjoys this book a ton.

I received this book as a hand-me-down from my sister and after her four kids is was pretty worn out. I have taped almost all of the pages and have even had to throw some away. I am buying a new one becuase my 21 month old LOVES it. The pictures are so wonderful.

My ten month old son has a lot of books, but this one is his absolute favorite. A nice way to introduce animals to a little one. I like the way the author sectioned the book into what sounds the animal makes, animal colors, a 'find my animal baby' section, etc. My son loves the beautiful, colorful photos and responds enthusiastically to them. We have three cats at home, and he squeals when he sees the photos of the cats and kittens. He picks this book out of his pile of toys, sits and pages through it, laughing at his favorite animals - the big pages are easy to turn, even for a wee one, and the book lies flat, so he can study the page he wants. But - of course it's not as strong as a board book, and he has destroyed this one - we have to buy another copy because it has fallen apart, and the tape we used to put it back together doesn't let the pages lie flat. Well worth the money though, because he loves the book.

Both of my boys have loved this book. I am buying my fourth book now. The animal pictures are large and vibrant, the selection of animals is great. Each page offers a new activity; colors, attributes and Mom to baby connections. Loved it!
