Title: Very disappointed
Product review: I was so blown away by the effusive reviews on these books that I bought both full sets for my 17 month old grandson and one set each for my other four grandchildren, ages 18 months, 2 and 3 years, to give as Christmas presents -- all these children have many books and are read to on a regular basis. I was very disappointed -- I wish I had my money back!! The 17 month old bats the book away with his hand when I pick it up to read to him -- he will only listen to a bit of the "Doggie" book because I make all those tiresome dog "barking" sounds. The pictures are so simplistic -- a few sketchy lines -- that only the 3 year old can make sense of them. I have noticed that all the children are drawn to pictures of real photo-looking pictures of children and animals. and they all love Margaret Wise Brown because the words and pictures are something that they already know about and recognize. If you want books that children will love to read over and over, look elsewhere.
