I have this book and my one year old adores it. He constantly goes and gets it and will actually sit still in my lap while I read it. It has very simple text and wonderful pictures of babies from all ethnic backgrounds. It's a must have for all babies.

I bought this bok for my son before he was even born and now that he is 17 months old he is totally fascinated by this book. He loves to look at the pictures of the babies. The book consists of maybe 10 sentences which is wonderful for children(my son especially) who have short atention splans when it comes to reading. He looks at this book while I change his diaper, while he eats his super, and throught out the day. When he wants me to read it to him, he brings it to me and says" Mommy, wowie babies!"

My son received this book as a gift when he was about 5 mo old. Now, almost a year later, he still loves it! He is absolutely mesmerized by all of these babies. The only page that he doesn't seem to like is the "Cry Babies" page, which, of course, shows babies crying. He quickly moves on to the next page. All in all, this book is a home run! Expect to read it over and over and over again.

My sister bought this book for my daughter when she was 6 months old. My daughter has loved it since then. She's now 2 1/2. I have another daughter and she loves it, too. She's almost 9 months and all she does is laugh when she sees the pictures of the babies. She can't get enough of it. The binding is falling apart from use. That's how much my girls love this book. I agree with the reviewer below -- the diversity is great. What a refreshing change.

My baby, now 8 months old, loves this book as well as "Baby! Talk!" and "Grow! Babies!" (also by same author/photographer). We first found it at our local library when she was about 4 months old, but I finally had to order it when we ran out of renewals. I love that the babies are so engaging, of different ethnicities, and show different moods. I also enjoy the straight-forward text that doesn't rhyme and won't make you feel stupid to read out loud.

My daughter LOVED this book. I mean LOVED. If your child likes baby faces in books they will delight at this one. Ours is literally tattered from all the love.

I bought this book for my son when he was just about a year old, and he loved it. He at first liked looking at the faces, and laughed when we would describe the different scenarios on each page. He enjoyed this book for a very long time and it is so worn out I am getting a new one for his little sister.

My cousin's baby received this book for Christmas. At only 5 months old, I thought Conner was too young to respond to books, but he loved the pictures. He was fascinated, and it kept him entertained for quite a long time.
