Baby Colors (Beautiful Babies) Board book – Picture Book, April 1, 2009

Bought this because baby likes "Baby's Best Friend." This is a very cute book to teach colors. Rhyming text and cute photos. And includes lots of colors not often seen in books (like grey). We have several color books (this plus "Diving for Colors in Hawaii," "Colors of the Wine Country," and "Brown Bear Brown Bear What do You See?") By 13 months baby knew her colors and would hand me the red flower or the green toy upon request.We also have "Mouse Paint" which baby is not at all interested in.

I purchased this for my daughter when she was just a few weeks old. I would just hold her and read to her. As she got older, I would always use it during tummy time time to keep her busy. She would always get excited when we would get to orange page...or as we called it, "Orange Slice Baby".She is now a year old and still loves this book. It is the only book that she will sit completely still for. She gets so excited when we read it to her. We actually had to order a new book because we had worn the pages of book.This is a "must have"!! It is too cute!!

My eleven-month old has really enjoyed this book lately. The "orange" baby makes him laugh, and he'll happily sit through the whole book, sometimes even asks for it again. He's usually very active so getting him to sit for a book is not always easy. The only photo I don't like is the "purple" baby. The purple is so light it's almost grey, and that baby's face doesn't look quite real, although maybe it is. Anyway, nice book, cute photos, baby likes it!

I love this book. I first got it from the library and it quickly became my 1 1/2 year old's favorite book. Great photos, good rhymes, right amount of words/page, and rich colors. My 4 year old quickly memorized the pages and now likes to "read" it to his little brother. This would be a great new baby or first birthday gift, and it's now one of my go-to's for baby showers.

My daughter (now 15 mos) has loved books with baby faces since she was quite young. There are some that she really studies (the "My First Board Books" are a big hit as well as the Global Fund for Children books) -- these books seem to be catering to the child, not the adult, as they tend to show clear faces with clear emotions and clear actions that can be discussed with your baby. This book had pretty pictures, but felt contrived. The babies are all posed, and often lying around in beds of rose petals. It also felt heavily photo-edited, almost like the pictures had been airbrushed. It just didn't feel realistic or educational. I'm sure some people will like it for its prettiness, but it wasn't for us.

My son (almost 5 months) had a huge smile on his face when I read him this book the first time. He loves looking at other babies. There is one baby that is pretty obviously photo-shopped (I think purple baby), and looks a little creepy, but the rest are beautiful and my son doesn't seem to mind! If your baby loves looking at other babies like mine, get them this book.

My three year old loves babies and she thought this book was great. The purple color seemed to be more gray, but otherwise I thought it was a great book.

Great book! Pages were really stuck together and it was a little hard to pull them apart but such a great book and got delivered very quickly!

Bright and colourful with pictures of happy babies. Have another one of this author's books (Giggle Baby) and is a big hit with the young ones.
