3.0 out of 5 stars The Everything Baby Shower Book, April 1, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: The Everything Baby Shower Book (Everything) (Paperback)

This book is well laid out with a large and varied amount of information, with plans for having formal baby showers to simple and casual ones. However, I found that it is lacking in recipe/food ideas, and that many of the games are those found in the plethora of other shower books available. I also found editing errors, such as (pg 203) a reference to "the bride" as opposed to the "new mom"... since this is a baby shower book, I felt that this was evidence of poor editing. It also does not do a good job of addressing the newer trend of men attending showers, or of dealing with having a teenage baby shower. Unfortunately, this is a realistic need, and is what I'm looking for. I did find several games that they will probably enjoy, guys included, but other than "Mystery Guest", nothing that I didn't find somewhere else. I am not impressed with this book, but will be using it anyway. It's not bad, but others are probably as good for less money.

What a terrific book! I found everything I needed to plan a shower fast, easily and with a lot of flair. From games and ideas to decorating tips to even a grocery shopping list, this book was way, way worth the price! A great find! We had a really fun shower!

This review is from: The Everything Baby Shower Book (Everything) (Paperback)

If anyone is going to throw a baby shower,on any sort of budget, this is certainly and completely the book to get. There's everything in there from how to make easy invitations and recipes to games to play at the shower. It's very charmingly written, well-organized and makes it so logical and simple to do. This is the only baby shower book you'll ever need to buy. Check out the lists - they're great!
