adorable little book! Bought it as part of a cupcake-themed birthday gift for my niece's first birthday because i call her "cupcake" as a nickname. Its a simple little storybook parents--or an aunt--can read to a child! The colors are vibrant and the pictures are great, overall a fun book any little one would enjoy.

My 2 year old son was quickly drawn to You Are My Little Cupcake. It's written by Amy E. Sklansky and illustrated by Talitha Shipman. The illustrations are cute, and the text is all about how the baby is like a cupcake.

"Your smile is as sweet as frosting. Your snuggle can't be beat."

The text is rhyming. Our copy of You Are My Little Cupcake is in boardbook form, and the cover even has a cupcake liner texture. Very cute. Though the book illustrates a baby, even older children can enjoy this book! It is definitely a good cuddling book for parents! I can't wait to share this with our baby come October! (Our son ate a lot of our board books...Probably I should be more accurate. Our son chewed the binding and ruined many of our board books.)

I thank Little, Brown for providing this great book for us to enjoy for review purposes. We think their books are fabulous!

You Are My Little Cupcake was given to my daughter as a gift and what a wonderful gift it is!! My 1 1/2 year old daughter loves it! The cover is inviting, with a textured cupcake wrapper for her to feel. The pictures are precious and the word patterns flow wonderfully. I would recommend this book highly for anyone with a little one who enjoys a good book.
