Tues. Reviews ~ Baby-sized books

I love tiny books for babies! Isaac got them for Christmas last year from his Grandma and PopPop. They are just the right size for his pudgy, adorable hands! First up are these little Bible story board books. There are nine books in the set, and can be purchased here.
Isaac loves to look at these books in the car, and sometimes digs them out of the bottom of his book basket to read at story time. Stories featured in nine books are: The Nativity, In the Temple, The Storm, Good News, Loaves and Fishes, Little Children, the Kind Man, The Royal Welcome, Jesus Lives.
Puppies and Kittens is the first book Isaac ever received. Even before he could turn the pages himself, he enjoyed looking at the pictures in this book and listening to Mommy and Daddy making the doggie and kitty cat noises! Now that Isaac is 18 months old, he often pulls this book out of his pile and perches on his baby-sized chair to look at the pictures and touch the fuzzy, furry spots on each page. This book is especially good for very young babies (0-6 months) because each page includes a solid color background and one cat or one dog. The image really pops off the background page, without too much busy effects or graphics to overwhelm their young eyes.

Isaac absolutely LOVES these books! They were a special Christmas gift from his GiGi and Pappy. I keep one handy in his diaper bag for times when he seems bored or frustrated --either in the car or when we're out in the stroller. They are really great for teaching your baby words! Again, the solid background, with one bright, bold image really works well for infants. Each page also includes the color and word featured. Babies love looking at vibrant, "kid-colored" toys and objects, and these books are full of bright, fun toys, foods, animals, and vehicles! These books, by Katie Cox, can be found on Amazon.com.
