This board book has wonderfully large pictures showing Caillou playing in the mud where he discovers a caterpillar. Since he is so muddy, his mother takes him in for a bath then pajamas and bed. Although it has more text than most that other board books, the pictures are in bright, primary colors and depict activities to which most children can relate. Therefore, I think it would keep the attention of the younger ones, while also be a good beginning reader book.
