Behind the BIG TREE is a little tree. Behind the BIG DOG is a little dog. Pop out each soft, colorful, nontoxic foam piece to discover the difference between big and little. Children can remove the shapes of a house, car, tree, and dog, and then easily press them back in. The shapes float--in fact, so does the entire book!--so they're perfect for bathtime, not to mention bed, travel, or any old time! Check out Animals, Counting, In and Out, or any of the other titles in this terrific series. (Ages 1 to 4) --Emilie Coulter --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hours of fun!, July 20, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Soft Shapes: Big and Little (Foam Book)

My one year old twins got this for their birthday and just love it. They can pop the shapes out and put them in their mouth. The pages are easy to turn for them and they seem to read the book longer than others. This book is my favorite in the series because all of the shapes have holes which make it easier to get the pieces out.

5.0 out of 5 stars Soft Shapes: Big and Little, August 8, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Soft Shapes: Big and Little (Foam Book)

Our daughter loves this book. As fast as we can put the shapes in the book, she takes them out. Hopefully, she will soon learn to put the shapes back in the book. She chews them, waves them, and hands them to us. They are also fun in the tub.

I got this for my son when he was one and he loved the book! He does chew on it some (though it specifically says that it is not a teething toy), but other than a few teeth marks, he has inflicted no damage. The premise of the book is good for little ones, as it focuses on opposites. it is a good beginner book for learning to place "puzzle pieces" in correctly.

Cons: The only criticism is that my son, as well as other children who have played with the book, have difficulty understanding which piece to place in each slot. They try and match the COLORS, which do not coordinate.
