I have made several of the blankets out of this book, and they have all turned out super well. The friends to whom I have the one with the pinwheels have barely used it because it's such an amazing work of art. On the other hand, my godson sleeps with his (the one on the cover with the giraffes) every night and was reluctant to hand it over to me for repairs when I last saw him. "Hey Diddle Diddle" has a tremendous design - even if there's so much white it's a challenge for infants. Overall, highly recommended.
I can only give this three stars because I really just like one pattern in this book. I bought the book for it and that's about it. Otherwise, I haven't really used it at all.
