Global Babies (Global Fund for Children Books) Board book – Picture Book, 1 July 2007

Disappointment. In the book you can see mostly black and south Asian babies. There are only 2 white babies: one American - the photo is smaller than that of others’ and of a very low quality, second - Spanish. None of other European babies are included, none of mixed race babies are included, none of Chinese babies are included, none of Arab babies are there either. The title of the book should be African and South Asian babies, that would be more correct. For my baby I would prefer to have a book where she is represented and that’s not the case.

My 10 month old loves this book, it's his favourite!I can read it without looking at this book and he will find the book and bring it to me.When he's cranky, I read him this book and he will automatically calm himself and listen attentively.

This is my daughter's first favourite book. She lights up whenever I read it to her and has done since about 8 weeks old. She loves cooing at the babies. It sends a really positive, diverse message too. Great but.

My 16 months old really likes this book. On each page there is a picture of a baby from different country. My son "reads" this book a couple of times a day :)

Such a lovely book, unfortunately had an issue with our copy but seller was fantastic and offered a refund, thank you.

The idea behind the book is exelent and I realy enjoy showing my son babyes from all arond the world. I want him to learn and later understand that even though there are people all around that world that, look different and have different cultures, all people are the "same".However the book itself was a little bit of an disapointment. Both the pictures in the book and the book is self is a little bit low qualety. Some of the pictures are not even clear. Also I find it a little strange that there are 2 babyes from the US instead of filling it with more countries. And at last I find it wery weird that the picture in the front of the book is not marked with what country it is from... I would guess the baby is from Tibet, china or Mongolia but there is no way of knowing....
