My daughter Amanda was given this book by a Canadian friend when she was born. I read everyday before nap time starting when she was 3 months old. Even at this early age every page held a tactile activity. Sadly the book was used so much even then and again revitalized when Amanda became a toddler that it became rather ragged. So today I am placing an order for a new book even though my daughter is now 6 because she still holds fond memories.

This was by far the favorite book of out first daughter - even from 10 months old.

The combination of vocabulary,touch and feel pop-up devices and the storyline of two best friends, Teddy and Kitty, are better balanced than any book of its kind we've seen.

Although its robustly made with good board construction, it won't last forever! So buy two copies before it's out of print.
