This was the first book that our daughter paid any attention to. We think she liked the vibrant colors, simple drawings, and the way light shines through the cut-out when you flip it up. She would lie on the floor or the couch and we would hold it open over her to "read" it to her. Now that she's 4 months old, she actually starts cooing when she sees the cover and still likes looking at the pictures and the opened cutouts. I am not rating it 5 stars because the tabs are pretty difficult to open. It is a great book while parents are doing all of the opening and shutting for a small baby, but once the baby starts wanting to use her hands it's frustrating because it's too subtle of a design for her to do herself. Not surprisingly, our 13-month-old niece didn't seem to enjoy the book very much relative to others that had big, easy-to-operate tabs. I recommend it for very young infants but not older infants/toddlers.
Great book for younger children

Parenting magazine gave this book a great review so I purchased it for my child. He was able to grow into it and at 2 he still laughs and has a fun time with it. It's engaging, colorful and a great learning tool. Have given this as a birthday gift.
