Amazon.com Review
The thinking's not fuzzy in these board books, but the animals certainly are. Sandra Boynton's familiar furry creatures introduce simple concepts in this bright collection of four books, replete with clever line drawings. In Horns and Toes and In Between, three horned monsters teach the parts of the body in rhyme: "...and we have a fuzzy TUMMY that we all like to pat / and a little BELLY BUTTON in the middle of that." The Going to Bed Book gets a Noah's Ark of animals organized for bed: "They hang their towels on the wall / and find pajamas, big and small." Opposites is just that: cute animals "high and low / fast and slow / heavy and light / day and night." In the rhyming reader But Not the Hippopotamus, a hippo finds himself on the outs as "a cat and two rats are trying on hats. / But not the hippopotamus. / A moose and a goose together have juice. / But not the hippopotamus." Rest assured the hippo finds love at the end. (Baby to preschool) --Claire Dederer

Great Value! December 10, 2008
Hannah Drew (Queen Creek, AZ USA)
This is a great start for any young child's book collection. I've been reading Boynton to my daughter since she was an infant. She is now 2 and still loves them and "reads" them back to me. I purchased this set for $15 here on Amazon. Individual retail value would be $24+. This is a steal.
Absolutelly wonderful December 4, 2008
Eleftheria Kama (Athens, Greece)
My one and a half year old daughter loves them.
She first got "The going to bed book" as a gift from her aunt living in the States and even though we are not english native speakers, she keeps wanting me to read it again and again and again...
I decided to buy more SB's book and she seems to love them all... maybe that was one of the best purchases I got through Amazon...
Adorable Books December 3, 2008
New Mom (Virginia, USA)
We love the Boynton books. We've been reading them to our little one since before he was born. The pictures are great and the text is cute. Fun to read!
Big Hit with Babies October 6, 2008
A. Cushman (Redmond, WA)
Sandra Boynton's books are a must have for anyone with small children or babies. This collection is perfect for someone starting to collect books for their child. Even a newborn will listen to several of these books in a row.

These books are GREAT for babies, and older children enjoy them, too. I got them for my grand daughter's first birthday, and they were a hit! They are imaginative, appealing, engaging, and fun!
