Wow! Babies!

by Penny Gentieu

It's a fact...babies love to look at other babies and this big, stylish book is brimming over with the most expressive baby faces ever. With bright, eye-catching photos by a master phtographer, Wow! Babies is a collection of dozens of faces that Mom, Dad, and Baby will simply drool over! Each spread explores a different mood, emotion or important time in a baby's very busy day.  Babies' faces will light up as they recognize other babies laughing, crying, cooing, and playing. Penny Gentieu's spectacularly vivid photographs, combined with delicious pastel nursery colors make this an ideal gift for any family with a new baby--or one on the way. Here's looking at you, kid!

Reviews

[Leo]

14 month old Leo was initially uninterested, but after we got past the first half of the book he got pretty focused and seemed to be thinking. Mom thought it was a cute book. Some of the photos really made her laugh, and she thought it was cool that one of the babies had the exact same blocks that Leo does (they were blocks that Mom played with in her childhood).

I got it because the kiddo is fascinated with other babies right now. But the book was a bit meh. Could have done with larger, more focused images rather than a collection on a single spread. Not super engaging.

Sophie loves anything by this author. Really fun books for the littlest ones.

I'm not a huge fan, but my two-year-old liked it. There are eight babies on each page, so it's good for counting to eight.

I am not a huge fan. ... But my one year old wants to read it at least 10 times per day.

Perfect story time book!

The color scheme is really dated. I like Baby! Talk! better.
