Book Reviews of Open the Barn Door (A Chunky Book(R))Book Review: Just needed something cheap to meet free shipping requirement on Amazon... Summary: 5 Stars
Well, I managed to purchase an item that was 24.99 from amazon.. one freaking penny more and it's free shipping... Well, I've made a bit of an effort to help expand my son's choices of books to read before bead-time so I chose this book to meet my $25 minimum.
He loves the interaction and has chosen it 4 of the past 5 nights for his bed-time book. I'm sure it's just a matter of time before he moves on to a new book, but for right now... it seems to be the book of the moment.
The book would be good for a child in the pre-reading age and may not be good for a child who lacks soem finer motor skills. The content is nice and allows he and I to interact and prompts questions about various farm animals. it's amazing how... when you try... almost any book can promote educational benefits... even one about farm animals.
I'd definitely buy this book again.
Book Review: Great for travel! Summary: 5 Stars
I gave this book 5 stars because if you manage your expectations, it more than delivers. At 4"x4", it is small, compact, light and portable--great for a NYC mom like me who carried it with me everywhere we went during the 9 month-2 year period of my son's babyhood. It was great at simultaneously demonstrating the lift-the-flap book concept and introducing farm animals and their sounds to babies. As my son grew older, (as kids do with their toys and books), his relationship and engagement with the book evolved as well and I found him thoroughly enjoying not only the flap-lifting, but also combining reading of the book with intermittent breaks of "Old McDonald" stanzas. For a small book, it has a lot of punch.
Book Review: Simply a "must have" Summary: 5 Stars
This was one of the first books I bought for my daughter. Actually I bought it while she was still in my womb! I decided to get it after seeing a child having the best time reading it with her mother at one of my pre-natal visits.Needless to say my daughter absolutely loves this book. She is now going on 15 months old and picks this book daily to read over and over and over.... The pictures are simple, bright and clear. She loves to lift the flaps and see which animal is waiting for her and we both giggle our hearts out as we make the sounds together. A pure joy of a book for both child and adult. This book, I safely can say is her favorite (and one of mine too).
Book Review: My daughters' favourites Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this book for my second daughter when she was still in my womb! I got it after seeing it how my friend's kids adore it. As it turns out my daughter absolutely loves it. She is now 18 months old and picks this book daily to read over and over and over... The pictures are simple, bright and clear. She loves to lift the flaps and see which animal is waiting for her and we both giggle our hearts out as we make the sounds together. A pure joy of a book for both child and adult. The favourite series of my older daughter is Why Some Cats are Rascals, Book 1.
Book Review: Both of my kids LOVED this little book & still do! Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this tiny book 4 years ago at one of our local book shops. It is now tattered and torn from all the use it has gotten over the years by both of my kids! But it is still one of their favorites. It has taken a beating and we still keep reading! This is the book that I keep in my purse or diaper bag to keep my kids occupied at a restaurant, in a waiting room or at the grocery store. It really is a simple little book with just the right number of peek a boo flaps! I highly recommend this tiny board book to any family on the go :)Mommy's High Heel Shoes
