Cute and simple introductions to greetings and common bugs for babies who are just starting to have books read and shown to them。 The colorful reflective portions of each page were quite fun while not going over board and ruining the simplicity。

The high-contrast and metallic illustrations in this book mean it does a fantastic job of catching baby's attention。 The high-contrast and metallic illustrations in this book mean it does a fantastic job of catching baby's attention。 。。。more

Great use of shiny textures and black contrast

Reading picture-books about bugs for Children's Books group。 Love this one because it's for the littlest, and is just exactly educational enough。 I appreciate the cheerfulness of the tiny critters, no yuckiness at all。 And the vocabulary of munch, scurry, scuttle, etc。 is delightful。 And I love the twist ending, when we say "Bye-bye, butterfly" because after all they don't stick around long enough for a proper hello, do they?I will look for more by the creators。 Reading picture-books about bugs for Children's Books group。 Love this one because it's for the littlest, and is just exactly educational enough。 I appreciate the cheerfulness of the tiny critters, no yuckiness at all。 And the vocabulary of munch, scurry, scuttle, etc。 is delightful。 And I love the twist ending, when we say "Bye-bye, butterfly" because after all they don't stick around long enough for a proper hello, do they?I will look for more by the creators。 。。。more

My child smiled and enjoyed the high contrast illustrations since he was 6 months old。 There is hardly any text but the playful illustrations are so engaging。 Even for me the adult reader, I have enjoyed exploring the subtlety needed to make effective and captivating thick lined illustrations with only three colors per image - black, white, and one metallic color。 I love this book most of all because it made my son smile before I could ever figure out why he was so moved。

This book is great because it is a high contrast book。 Fiona was really interested in looking at the pictures and touching all the bugs as we read!

A lovely way to learn about bugs

My toddler loves this little board book。 I read it to her all the time, and she even "reads" it to me。 My toddler loves this little board book。 I read it to her all the time, and she even "reads" it to me。 。。。more

The shiny pictures will attract small readers。

This was such a cute book。 I read it to my newborn and the shinyness on some of the pictures really pulled his eyes。 Will be ordering the other books。

Kathy Ellen Davis

A simple high contrast board book with spots of metallic color on each page。You say hello to each bug, and then the bug makes a sound as well。My two year old can practically read this on her own, but still really loves it!

Joy Reinbold

A cute, sweet little take on high contrast books。 My infant loves the shiny spots, too!

I've given this book to three different babies in my family now and it's been a big hit with all of them。 The shiny accents are very appealing to them。 My four month old nephew loves to look at this book。 He especially likes the picture of the bee。 I've given this book to three different babies in my family now and it's been a big hit with all of them。 The shiny accents are very appealing to them。 My four month old nephew loves to look at this book。 He especially likes the picture of the bee。 。。。more

This is a really simple book, just says hello to different types of bugs (who look really cool, with metallic details on a black background) and features each bug's sound。 This would be good for really young kids, but it's a small board book, and I think it might work better one-on-one, so that the kids could touch the cool pictures (I would want to!)

A favorite of the two year old in my life。 we can read this non-stop。 Easy to add little hand gestures to the insect noises for each page (caterpillar munching her toes or arm), a great way to introduce love of books at a young age

Miss Kelly

Perfect baby gift

My little sister is obsessed with this book! Every time she sees it, she asks if we can read it。 She loves saying "Hello" to the cute, shiny bugs。 This is a great book for toddlers。 My little sister is obsessed with this book!

The two-year-old absolutely loves this one。

Perfectly suited for two's and under, a cheerful bug is presented on each page。 The text prompts the adult to say, "Hello, __________ (bug's name)"。 There are some additional verbs to share with each bug such as "scurry, scurry", "munch, munch", "buzz, buzz", "crick, crick" and so forth。Children love touching the shiny colored foil painted on each bug。 They love greeting the bug with a "hello!"。 They quickly add the names of the bugs to their vocabulary。 Perfectly suited for two's and under, a cheerful bug is presented on each page。 The text prompts the adult to say, "Hello, __________ (bug's name)"。 There are some additional verbs to share with each bug such as "scurry, scurry", "munch, munch", "buzz, buzz", "crick, crick" and so forth。Children love touching the shiny colored foil painted on each bug。 They love greeting the bug with a "hello!"。 They quickly add the names of the bugs to their vocabulary。 。。。more

Bam cooks the books ;-)

Good for newborns on up。 My grandson is really into bees and bugs and loves this black and white book with glitter images。 We call him Super Bee when he wears his bee hooded bathrobe! Fun times!! <3

Kimberly

Beautiful foil embellishments on black and white illustrated board pages。 Babies will love this book, my preschoolers did!

Maria Morrison

A colourful way t explore the kingdom of the creepy and crawly。

This high contrast book with foil embellishments is designed for younger babies。 Unfortunately it omits some bugs that should be included like ants, fireflies, rolypoly bugs and instead dedicated space to the spider, snail, and worm。 The text says hello to all of the "bugs"beginning with caterpillar except we say "bye-bye, butterfly" though there is no connection between the caterpillar and butterfly。 This high contrast book with foil embellishments is designed for younger babies。 Unfortunately it omits some bugs that should be included like ants, fireflies, rolypoly bugs and instead dedicated space to the spider, snail, and worm。 The text says hello to all of the "bugs"beginning with caterpillar except we say "bye-bye, butterfly" though there is no connection between the caterpillar and butterfly。 。。。more

Stan's favorite book。 This is the first one he responded to, reaching out to touch it and try to turn pages。 He waves his arms around excitedly when he sees it!

I'm not as big a fan of this one as "Hello, Animals!" but it still shares many of the same characteristics (short, simple, good contrast, color foil bits, cute illustrations) making it a good choice。 Many of the onomatopoeia sounds for the bugs are the same thing repeated twice which just isn't as fun as saying something asymmetrical。 Both books are rather fun as you can encourage your baby to respond to the book by saying "hello" back to each animal。 I also like that both are a bit heavier on t I'm not as big a fan of this one as "Hello, Animals!" but it still shares many of the same characteristics (short, simple, good contrast, color foil bits, cute illustrations) making it a good choice。 Many of the onomatopoeia sounds for the bugs are the same thing repeated twice which just isn't as fun as saying something asymmetrical。 Both books are rather fun as you can encourage your baby to respond to the book by saying "hello" back to each animal。 I also like that both are a bit heavier on the black than the white which somehow feels nicer/more solid。 。。。more
