At first, when I got this book (2 of them actually!) I thought "ha ha what a cute gag book for new moms who live in cities" and put it on the shelf. When my son was about 9 months old he pulled it off the shelf and it fell open to a page with a doggie--he got so excited! So, turning each page I tried to find more things he could recognize and discovered there are a lot of things to look at in this book. There are pacifiers, bottles, doggies, shoes, taxis, strollers, trees, books, etc. There's even an entree shaped like a cat's face! I admit, the book seems superficial and perhaps almost virtually useless compared to other childrens' books, but it soon became much loved as my son enjoyed pointing out all the things he knew!
