COPY ISBN
Baby-Toddler—Katz returns with her round-faced babies in this busy board book. Readers follow a diverse set of babies through their day starting with waking up and ending with bedtime. The popular format of labeling multiple recognizable objects on a page makes this board book one that little ones will return to again and again. Lift- the-flaps prompt interaction on every page, and children will enjoy finding the textured objects throughout the pictures. The flaps will need to be reinforced to make sure the book endures multiple circulations, but the textured elements will survive being handled by little hands even if the flaps are missing.
VERDICT An excellent purchase for home libraries and board book collections.
