My Thoughts:
I love childrens books! My "baby" is 13 so I don't get the chance to read/look at them very often anymore but with two of my cousins recently having babies, I've got a great excuse again! Not only will this book make a GREAT gift for Christmas, it's FUN!
The illustrations are darling and easy to see, the words are clear enough that you could easily read this book upside down while showing children the pages.
I can see this book being packed away with Christmas ornaments each year and being passed on through generations. It is sweet, interactive and educational all in one!
