Rating: Summary: This is the best baby gift! Review: I received this book at my baby shower and it was my favorite gift by far. It is filled with all the classic bedtime tales, nursery ryhmes, games (e.g. "Where is Thumbkin," "The Insy-Weensy Spider"), and even fun simple recipes for when they're older. The 1940's illustrations are beautiful! This book is an all around gem!Babies love to hear mom's voice even if they don't yet know what your saying. I read from it almost daily and lil' Sadie's only two months old. It works like a charm and puts her to sleep everytime. This book will be in our library for a very long time.
Rating: Summary: A Favorite! Review: I received this book from my husband for my first mother's day and I love it! I was looking for a bedtime storybook that had all the favorites in it and this is definately the one! It has all the most loved songs, stories and rhymes. The recipes, poems and games are an added bonus! I recommend this book to all the new moms...and dads!
Rating: Summary: The Best Gift for New Mom (or Dad) Review: I stumbled across this book literally by accident...I was in search of a baby shower gift for a friend who refused to register for anything. She was also the first of a string of friends to become with child. The book was a hit, and suddenly the rest of my pregnant friends "assumed" they too would be getting "The Book" from me as a shower gift... It's been the perfect "all in one" book for new Moms and Dads alike (though now there's a Little Big Book for Dads). My friends joke, "If you're looking for, it's in The Book." Though the fairy tale endings may not be what you remember, don't parents make them up anyways? :) I highly recommend this book as a gift.

Rating: Summary: Should Be On Every Mom's Bookshelf Review: I stumbled on this book which I bought for myself and have given it as a gift for Mother's Day ever since. It is a beautiful book filled with stories, poems, songs, finger plays and recipes. My children (2 and 4) love to hear the classic stories, sing and do finger plays. The recipe for edible play dough is wonderful and my children clammor to make it every week! A wonderful reference and a real charmer.
Rating: Summary: A 'MUST HAVE' Book for New Parents Review: I was given this book as a shower gift and didn't pay much attention to it right away. As a new mom I was laughing with my mother one day that I was so out of touch with children's nursery rhymes and songs. The only song I could remember when singing my son to sleep was 'Frosty the Snowman'! : ) Mom then reminded me that I had this book and once I opened it I realized what a treasure I had. This book is packed with wonderful poems, ALL the great stories from 'Snow White' to 'Jack and the Beanstalk' plus tons of ideas for crafts and recipes. It has everything in one small package. I plan on giving it as a shower gift to all of my pregnant girlfriends and have purchased all of the other books that the author has written. Many of them are holiday focused (Christmas & Halloween for example). I wish she would add to the series with at least two more about Easter and Thanksgiving and I think it would be complete! This is a must have for all new or seasoned parents!
Rating: Summary: A Treasury of Childhood Review: If you're like me and need a refresher course on nursery rhymes, fairy tales and lullabies, then you will appreciate this book. I spent hours singing to my newborn and this book reminded me of all the songs I loved as a girl. Even at an early age, my baby also enjoyed listening to all the stories. Now that she's 9 months, she just loves the finger games! Also, there are some great recipes in this book that are easy to make and tasty, too. A must-read for all moms - as well as dads, grandparents and anyone who loves kids!
Rating: Summary: The PERFECT gift for moms Review: It's perfect for the mom who has everything or any mom for that matter!! My son has already started calling it Mommy's Book and brings it to me when he's sleepy. Such a little book can create thousands of memories.....Worth every cent and then some....
