The bright colorful illustrations were really appreciated by my one year old. He especially loves pointing out the details of the pictures -- a baby sitting in a high chair who has thrown food ("O" shaped cereal) on the floor; a baby crying; a baby clapping; baby toys; a colorful quilt showing different animals. I like the fact that the babies pictured are a variety of ethnic backgrounds (although the mom and dad who are pictured are white). A good read!

I have been reading to my daughter since she was born and this is one of the first books she responded to. She loves to look at the pictures and smiles when I read the words. It certainly has become "babies first book".

My 1 year old loves this book (and all the books in the Harper Learning Tree series). He claps everytime we read the page, "these are the things a baby hears...." The illustrations are simple and I think he relates to all the things he does during the day. Another good one for this age in the same series is "First STeps"...easy rhyming verse and cute illustrations. He reaches for both of these books all the time and snuggles in my lap to look at the pictures.

My one-year old reaches for this book again and again. She appears to enjoy the rhyming verse and the pictures, intently studying them each time and smiling! Hey, she's never used a bottle either (i.e., "these are the things a baby needs: bottle, blanket, rattle, beads), but what's the harm in learning a new word? This is a sweet book.

we love this book. this book has been an all time favorite for my little girl. the lyrical text and simplistic pictures filled with items babies see everyday make this book perfect for all little ones.

My daughter loves this book. She will cry sometimes when we try to read her others but this one always holds her attention. As to the comments about the "bottle" vs. "breastfeeding". Get a life people!! Yes breast is best but does a 7 month old child really know when reading the book what that means. Some babies can't be breastfed and they do need bottles. Sheltering them from that fact is ridiculous. Besides what would you like them to write. Blanket, mommies booby, and beads.

My 14 month old son has loved this book since he was three months old. Almost every night at story time he picks it out of the pile for us to read to him! He especially likes the pictures of the other babies and the Mommy and the Daddy. My husband has even memorized it!
