What Does Baby Say? : A Lift-the-Flap Book

Rating:
Summary: You'll love it, if you use baby-talk with your child.
Review: I love Karen Katz books (Where's Baby's Belly Button? Daddy and Me, Where's Baby's Mommy, Counting Kisses). This one has the same great pictures and durable format as the books we love. However, all the words under the flaps are in baby-talk (goo goo, boo boo, ba ba, night night etc). Since we never talk to our baby using those words, this book is a disappointment for us.

Summary: My daughter loves this book!
Review: We have all the Karen Katz books, but my daughter (17 mos) seems particularly attached to this one, perhaps because the babies are doing things she does. It's really fun to read it to her because she relates to the baby on each page: hungry baby who wants a bottle, sad baby who has a boo-boo, cranky baby who is crying, and finally, sleepy baby who is nestling down for the night (or nap). The illustrations are lovely and the paper is heavy and survives many a firm baby grasp. A great shower gift and a good one for anybody's baby library.
