[Susan · Rating 5 out of 5]

A terrific introduction to simple rhymes and concepts accompanied by vibrant cloth art and embroidery. Interesting pages such as the "animals with big teeth" page (note - all baby friendly even the horses although they do look a bit manic), numbers, weather, homes (hive for bee, pond for frog). Very nicely done.

Cute illustrations made from felts, fabrics, ribbons, buttons, and embroidery. Nice collection of children's rhymes with explaination of which motions to make (although not an exhaustive collection). Also, has pages of just pictures of categorized things like: fruits, vegetables, vehicles, clothes, etc...

This is an exquisitely "illustrated" and designed book. All of the images are hand-sewn with fabrics, threads, buttons etc. - the detail is amazing. And as introduction to the world for babies it's also a lovely book.
