Cute illustrations! December 18, 2008 This book has cute full-color illustrations, mostly of babies in different positions pointing to their body parts. The pages are thick and easy to turn. What I don't love about it is that there is no "story" but for a young baby, that's not a problem. He mostly likes to look at the pictures and we practice where his various body parts are. Nice book overall.
great baby shower gift November 30, 2008 Parents of the baby report that their baby (now 9 months) still loves "reading" this book every day. They love to hear the baby laugh and giggle while she turns the pages. Great choice as a gift - better than meaningless toys or clothing that can be used for only a minute.
Basically the song on paper November 24, 2008 I really didn't know what I was buying with this book. I figured it was more about different body parts, but instead, it was just the song! So we gave it to a new baby who didn't alreay know the song yet
My eigtheen-month-old son loves the book October 12, 2008 The drawings in this book are simple but colorful. It provides a line-by-line action guide to the song "Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes". The board pages make it durable and easy for flipping. My eighteen-month-old son is beginning to learn the actions of this song and he loves this book. He would bring it to me for me to sing to him and do the action together with him. I would strongly recommend this book to parents.
Lots of "hidden" value September 29, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
At first glance, this book appears to be simply an illustration of a kids song. Some reviewers have complained that that's all there is..so why buy it. But actually, there is a lot more there if you look.
First of all, while illustrated songs seem like an odd choice sometimes to adults, little kids LOVE them. Invariably, they are the ones my two year old brings to me again and again. They are also the first books that kids are able to memorize. This is important because they like to pull them out when they are playing independently, and model reading on their own. What a satisfying experience for a pre-reader! Plus, for parents for whom it doesn't come as naturally to bring music into their children's lives, these sorts of books are a great way to do so.
This book does an excellent job of being really clear with the pictures lining up the words and the body parts. The first line, she gives each body part it's very own page, so that they can be large and really obvious -- the little animal on the page mirroring the same body part as the baby is also very adorable.
When she gets to eyes, ears, mouth and nose, she adds another dimension by putting in item on the page that you can do with that body part -- for eyes - books, for ears - baby instruments, for mouth - baby food and sippy cup, and for nose - flowers. So there is a discussion element if you are reading this with your baby and choose to take it.
The back of the book has the last "knees and toes" echo...pretty cute, and also has the whole song written out under a staff with musical notes. My older daughter has taken to grabbing this 'baby' book and asking how to pluck it out on her little piano keyboard. So the book can have a second life for that purpose later on.
The pictures of the babies are endearing.. I love their happy little faces. It is worth noting that while the babies are definitely different "shades" -- it's hardly what I'd call multi-cultural, which is a shame because there's no reason why it couldn't have been. She did throw in a couple girls.
All and all, if the multicultural issue doesn't concern you, I'd recommend this highly for your own little on, or for a gift.
