That's nothing new, so let me share a couple of insights:Although parents may not realize at first, one of the most important things this short book teaches very young children is _humor_. This is an early (1982) book, although I believe the artwork was redrawn for this edition (1995). 5 more stars for Moo, Baa, La La La. Why would three singing pigs say, "La La La." after all.Also, giving the child a chance to provide his or her own (hopefully humorous) suggestion--as the animals all look on expectantly in the final 2-page spread--is a great way to finish the book.The animals are classic Sandra Boynton.
My youngest son learned his very first "words" on this book,he just says:moo-moo,ba-ba,and of course we are delighted hearing his funny way of talking,and,just like each Mom and Dad our little son's wordsare to us as the Pulitzer Prize.We read Moo Baa La La La at sleeping time, and I like to say that it has become an habit of which we can't do without;Moo Baa La La La is really a great book.
Even though my daughter can't really review it yet or tell me how much she loves it, as a parent, I think that it is a great book. She cries when we take it away. I can't wait until my daughter is old enough to really enjoy them. What a cute book. My daughter is only 7 months old and as far as 'favorites' go for 7 month olds, she loves to sit and will actually listen to us read it. I love all of Sandra Boynton's books.
LOVE LOVE LOVE THE BOOK. I like repeating the animal sounds. The book gets her attention and I love the simplicity of it. It really works and she is paying attention. I love this book. Both baby and I enjoy reading this together. I even try to change my voice so it will be interesting for her when I do the animal sounds.
My daughters both loved it. This is a must have for your little one's collection. Perfect from baby age to around age 3.
