Hello, Bugs!

Hello, Bugs! by Smriti Prasadam

Babies are supposed to be attracted to high contrast images, so it makes sense that there are a lot of black and white books for babies on the market. We received Hello, Animals! as a gift and liked it so much we went out and bought it's sequel, Hello, Bugs!
The illustrations are cute and the text is simple. Each page says "Hello, (bug)!" and includes a couple words/sounds that relate to that particular bug. The black and white illustrations include a pop of shiny color for a little added interest.
The pages on these board books are very thick which makes them great for young babies. They don't bend the way some board books do, and it's easy even for little fingers to flip through them.
My son pulls these books out to read all the time. It's no wonder one of his first words was "hello!"

  2. My son is 11 months and he loves "Hello Animals!" also. He liked it so much that we too went and bought "Hello Bugs!" Those are two books that I find him sitting and "reading" by himself all the time!
