Review
The latest in the Urban Babies Wear Black series demonstrates a wry sense of humor, crisp, sophisticated graphics and a thematic approach that leaves its presumed audience of babies in the cold. In addition to wearing bibs, it appears that foodie babies "know their way around a kitchen," "browse farmers' markets" and "dine al fresco." Dion's illustrations partake of a Helen Oxenbury-style sense of irony (the baby sharing "small plates" is seen from behind, flinging peas at a startled mother), but the complexity of their rendering puts them far beyond the visual comprehension of an actual baby. More for smug foodie parents than real babies--but we already knew that. (2-3) --Kirkus Reviews, December 15, 2008

Format:Board book
Foodie Babies Wear Bibs is by far the most adorable children's board book I've ever seen. The illustrations are whimsical, and engaging while the text is straightforward -- as it should be. Flipping through the pages I'm absolutely enamored with Nathalie Dion's depictions of roly poly babies playing with their food in all manner of locations. My favorite page is simply captioned "Foodie babies say cheese" and is accompanied by happy kiddies hamming it up for the camera while sampling platters of gouda, cheddar, and brie. Those are definitely my kind of babies!

I love humorous board books for babies. There is no point in me being bored while I read to my baby. This book is cute and somewhat humorous. I thought it would be a little more funny than it actually was. The baby didn't seem to be disappointed. He liked it.
