5.0 out of 5 stars Captivating for little eyes and hands, April 17, 2000

This review is from: Oh, Baby! (A Touch-and-Feel Book) (Board book)

I was given a copy of Oh, Baby! by the author because my then two year old is featured in this book. My daughter, however, had absolutely no interest in her picture, but continually enjoyed the page where she could lift the cardboard door surprising everyone with the puppy displayed behind it. This book features many interactive pages from the satin feel of a blanket to the fuzzy pom-pom on the front of the book. The daughter of a coworker actually bought this book while on vacation and returned to tell me how her children loved this book. She initially had no idea of my daughter's involvement with this book prior to purchasing it herself. I would recommend this entertaining book to anyone who would like to begin reading to their child at a young age. The pages are kept to a simple sentece per page and the book is interactive for the child to enjoy while being read to.

5.0 out of 5 stars My son's pick everytime!, February 13, 2001

My son received this book as a gift when he was about a month old. It's hard to imagine a book that attracts the attention of a one month old, but this one did! The moveable mobile has wonderful contrasts that caught his eye when he was tiny, and now that he is 14 months old, he loves to grab onto the mobile (it has withstood some serious abuse and has never ripped off!). Same thing with the "mirror" page - he could see light flickering in the mirror when he was a young infant and now that he is older, he loves to see his own face smiling back at him. We have about 150 children's books in our home and this one is definitely in the group of about 10 books that my son continually selects. I had never heard of this book before we got it, but now I recommend it to everyone.

I was very disappointed by the low quality of this book. The pictures are not as good a quality as other books and textures available to feel in the book is very limited. There are so many great touch and feel books on the market I would recommend other books like the "That IS Not MY..." series by Fiona Watt.
