I love the "My Very First Library" by Eric Carle concept but my daughter is only 11 months old and it's a little above her "reading" level just yet. The pages are divided in half making it hard for her to turn the pages so she just goes on to the next book. The books are about colors, shapes, etc. and you have to match the top of the page with the bottom of another page and I believe it requires a higher level of motor skills. Therefore, if you looking for Eric Carle books and have an infant or young toddler, I would go with the "Brown Bear & Friends" board book set, it's perfect for this age.

My daughter loved matching the pictures to the words/shapes/colors. She is five and eager to read. She said "I am reading!" while reading these books.

This collection of Eric Carle is one of my favorites. I gave it to a friend for her sons first birthday. It will hold up since the book material is sturdy & great for small fingers to hold on to. The illustrations are beautiful with colors that young children enjoy!
You will be pleased with this collection. Start reading with your child when they are young~ it is a gift for a lifetime!

When they are very little they want to handle it, gum it, chew on it, etc. Eric Carle is brilliant and putting his work onto such approachable material was the RIGHT thing to do. Instead of a 'baby shower', have a 'book shower' and lead off your present list with board books by Eric Carle.

This is a great collection of books. It literally has a number of ways to use them and will grow with your child.

These books are so cool. I bought them for Christmas for my 3 year old daughter and she wants me to read them all the time. What we really like is that instead of just reading it to her, it can be somewhat interactive. The pages of the book are split so there's the top section and the bottom section. "Numbers" for example, will have the number 1 on top with 1 block, then on the bottom she'll find the page that only has 1 banana. The pages are thick and sturdy so no need to worry about it getting ripped up!

These books are very cute, but they are not exactly like reading a story. They are more like activity books or challenge books for kids learning to read. They have you match up the pages for the written word to the corresponding picture. I love Eric Carle, his pictures are beautiful!

Perfect for my one year old. They are the perfect size and he's getting used to the rhyming! We love these!

it is a good purchase, my kid love to see and hear me read the books. she will love to read it herself very soon.

These books are so cute. A real gem for any child. My oldest is 10 and she still can't part with her Eric Carle books!
