Baby-Toddler–A series to celebrate milestones in a baby’s life. In Happy Birthday, Little One, four lively and adorable animals celebrate the first birthday of a “little one.” With the perfect rhythm and rhyme, the simple structure of the sentiment matches well with the vibrant colors and excited faces of the animals and objects that want to celebrate a little one’s first journey around the sun. On Your Baptism Day offers a simple and successful rhyme perfect for a little one embarking on “a journey of faith.” Rather than animal characters, this title includes human characters that show a diverse representation of family while also incorporating religious symbology. The mix of pastel and vibrant colors makes for an eye-catching and beautiful read. The cover, colors, and short rhythmic statements in these books are well suited to a short read aloud.
VERDICT While this series would make a perfect gift set, since it offers space for personalization, these titles would also be a strong addition to board book collections that serve children from birth to age one.
