Summary: Beautiful work! Misuse by pedophiles unlikely.
Review: After buying Nick Kelsh's other book: "Photographing Your Baby" to get ideas for photographing our own daughter I checked out "Naked Babies". This book isn't about babies in the buff, it's about the tender beauty of newborns. It's little arms, chubby legs, gentle folds of baby fat, and those dimpled baby bottoms.In response to the other comment about pedophiles buying this book: those kinds of people are going to think what they think regardless of whether they have a book that visually depicts the innocence of babyhood. Deeming the images in this book "inappropriate" outside of the family photo album seems misguided. Bookstores including Amazon.com have stockpiles of books that communicate explicit messages of rape, murder, and other vulgarities that are far more dangerous than glimpses of tender baby skin. The masses should not be deprived of great works of art merely because a few perverts might interpret the message in a perverted way. Seriously, this is a touching book for anyone who loves babies and/or wants to photograph their own baby more artistically.

Summary: Great for the mother in your life
Review: After reading about this book in the paper, I bought a copy for my mom and she absolutely loved it. I don't know what it is about babies that tends to drive women crazy, but whatever it is, this book has it.

Summary: Oh what a beautiful book
Review: Anna Quindlen's text is so tender and Nick Kelsh's photo's are lovely. This is the gift I want to bring to any new mother I have the remotest association with, just to have an excuse to share it.

Summary: Book will be misused by pedophiles
Review: I love Anna Quindlan's work ordinarily, but it has been known for decades by social and medical scientists, but is largely ignored by media, advertising and arts people, that innocent naked babies are the biggest turn-on for pedophiles. Naked pictures of babies should be private family photo's, not in public books that could fulfill a perverted need in persons who currectly pose a great threat to children. Some of the diaper commercials are terribly exploitive of babies. Who will protect the children?

Summary: Beautiful Little Babies
Review: My wife and I saw this on Oprah and I knew I had to get it for her. We have three kids now aged 8 mos, 3 and 5 years. The wife loves this book, and anyone who likes kids can't help but love the beautiful pictures in here as well. Similar to the Anne Geddes books and pictures you see all over, except these are not decorated with flowers and stuff. Just babies and parts. Close-ups of a foot, a hand, an ear. It really is amazing to behold.

Summary: Naked Babies
Review: Quindlen and Kelsh truly capture the essence of "baby-ness." It took me months to read this book of photographs because every few pages, I would have to put it down and cry. The poignant writings and the stunning photography make this book a wonderful gift for expectant or new parents. Absolutely beautiful. Buy it for yourself or anyone who loves children.
