Review: Perfect gift for a newborn - One of my favorite gifts to give a newborn!
Review: Great first baby book - Babies respond to black and white, good contrast and graphic images. This book is perfect for young babies to just hold in front of them, but it does have a short shelf life. Past 6-8 months and your kid is getting too old. But still, it is a must for little babies, and the price makes it not a waste really. My kids spent hours looking at it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Our baby loves looking at these pictures!
*by F***K on July 14, 2017*

As you are probably aware, very young infants are not able to discern subtle differences between similar colors, but they do see contrast, and that's where this book comes in. Nothing too fancy here: it's a book of fairly simple images that are all uniformly white against a uniformly black background. No words, no story, no pop-up tabs, just pictures. But for a very young baby, that's enough! One of the great things about this book is that it IS "open-ended" -- while your baby looks at the pictures you can "narrate" with your own story or comments. And frankly, you'd better do just that because otherwise by the umpteenth time you find yourself flipping through the same 8-10 pictures you'll start going nuts! Seriously, though, it's fun watching your infant progress over several weeks from staring vaguely at the pages to really looking at the images. Ours is fascinated by the page with the buttons on it, which may have to do with the fact that infants have been shown to like circular shapes. (And who can blame them, right? Circles are definitely cool.) Very glad we bought this book.
