not a book to be "passed on" 2nd qualm. Two qualms about book. They list the baby horse who is saying "neigh, neigh" as "A PONY" instead of "A FOAL or FILLY" for us horse lovers out there, there is no greater upset then having a child call a baby horse pony. the edges wear out easily. My 7 month old used it as a teether and within minutes the edges were white.
I would think there's a way to make the flaps easier to open, if with keeping the book pocket size. The flaps are too small for my 13-month old son to open -- they just end up frustrating him.
I collect books for infants all year and think this is a pretty good story, but it is smaller than I expected.
Additionally, it's small and fits in her little hands perfectly. I ordered this book for my daughter when she was about 9 months old. This book is a must have for any child's book collection. I find her in a corner sometimes turning the pages and jabbering like she's reading it and we love reading it together over and over. She is now 12 months old and it's still her favorite book. She loves to turn the flap to discover the animals.
I am quite pleased with the book. At first, the size seemed too small, but for little hands it is good. These two grandkids (ages 1 and 2) are crazy about books, therefore, we depend on reviews when we shop. A Chunky Flap Book. I bought this as a gift for my granddaughter who loves farm animals.
