Very complete baby book..
Rating: 5
I love this book, even in spite of the fact I could care less about Babar. I sat in several bookstores, piled up every baby book they had, and went through them all (probably 15 in all), and liked this one the best. Here's why:
There is lots of room for writing whole paragraphs (and in some cases, pages) about your baby, not just fill in the blanks. Although in a few places, there are sentances like this: My mother's "height is _______, her eye color is ________, and her hair color is ________" those are in the minority. Usually a blank paragraph is headed by something like: "When my mother first saw me, she." Sometimes there is a whole blank page to answer a question. This is a book for people who like to write.
There are lots and lots of places for pictures. I do imagine that by the time I'm finished with this book, I will wish it had a spiral binding.
Some areas that are special or unique are the info about the parents (and their courtship and marriage), the grandparents, and the siblings. I also like the area for baby pictures of each parent. There are also places for both the mother and the father to fill in: "memories of my birth and first few days" and "hopes and wishes for me." Then they also seem to have covered all the usual stuff like places for ultrasound photos, a picture of the nursery, baby shower info, milestones, first words, and all that you might expect. By far, this was the most thorough book I saw.
Finally, the book does not assume your family is Christian; there is a section on the baby's first holiday. There is also a section for adoption.
So, I do wish this book was simplely styled (i.e. no Babar), but it isn't really too cutesy (and I hate cutesy), and the sections are so complete that I couldn't choose another book. Hope that helps you!

Very Pleasing.

It's hard to review bookmarks - they have such a simple job to do. However, I admit that not only are these bookmarks visually inviting, but are quiet useful coming in a book of twelve. It's nice to have a spare ready - particularly when you tend to juggle several Books as I do!

great gift for any Art lover.
Rating: 5
I loved these book marks. I am a teacher and I plan to use them in my classroom. What better way to introduce your students to great works of art. I love Degas and I am sure my students will learn to love him too.The price is also right! You can afford to give a few away and still have plenty for yourself to enjoy.

lovingly photographed: Blythe has attitude!!! .
Rating: 4
Blythe looks very self possessed in most of these photographs. The quibble I have is with layout: the white border around the photo detracts from the overall look and the corners couldve been trimmed better.
I like them but will not hesitate to use or give away as a gift ... whereas I //cannot// bring myself to use my "Hello Kitty Haiku" postcards (which Amazon also sells) because they are above and beyond perfect.
