Night Monkey, Day Monkey

Childrens Toy Shop > Children & Baby Books > Books for Babies
by: Julia Donaldson

August 07, 2006
A wonderful read aloud for 1 and 2 year olds. Lovely illustrations and nice story but just doesn't quite have the pazzazz of the gruffalo and her other books (we own the lot). Too basic for my four year old but my one year old really enjoys it.

Nutty Numbers: A Lift-the-flap Book (Dr Seuss Lift the Flap)

Childrens Toy Shop > Children & Baby Books > Books for Babies
by: Dr. Seuss

November 03, 2003
A wonderful and fun introduction to counting for younger children. Done in typical Dr Seuss style - short rhymes, colourful pictures and the added element of a lift flap will make it a favourite. Since I came across this new series about a month ago, my 3yr old has become really interested in these books and wants to read them every day - usually more than once!!

This Little Baby

Our daughter has been in love with this book since she was four months old. She is now eight months old and still loves looking at it. The surpise mirror at the end particularly seems to attract her. All in all a really wonderful baby book. Highly recommended.

Very First Words Board Book (Usborne First Words Board Books)

Childrens Toy Shop > Children & Baby Books > Books for Babies
by: Jo Litchfield

October 29, 1999
It's not bad but I think first word books work better with photographs rather than these cartoon pics. The body parts are just not very distinguishable.The nose, for example, is barely there.

Also given it's American, there's a very yellow taxi which is irrelevant to us Brits and I'm not keen on the page of junk food - burger, pizza, chocolate.

My 16 month old son seems to like it but there's much better books out there for first word association.

The Three Little Pigs and Other Stories: A Lift-the-flap Fairy Tale Collection (Lift the Flap Fairy Tales)

Childrens Toy Shop > Children & Baby Books > Books for Babies
by: Nick Sharratt, Stephen Tucker

My 3 year old loves this book....we only received it a few weeks ago and have read it over 25 times already. The illustrations are great and the book and pull out flaps are pretty sturdy in comparison to the other books I have bought recently. I am just about to buy the other fairy tale book in this series!

We read this book almost every day! Since she was 5 months old my daughter has shown obvious pleasure when I choose this story to read. She even has a favourite page that she laughs at each time! I don't get tired of re-reading this book, I want to buy more in this series!
