Industry Reviews

"The photos are bright-eyed and buoyant . . . Both books provide easily digestible tips for parents and caregivers on healthy eating and ways to encourage reaching, grabbing, and interaction. This and its companion are pleasant additions to the Happy Healthy Baby series."--Kirkus Reviews
In this addition to the Happy Healthy Baby series, Verdick and Lisovskis home in on an early developmental milestone--the use of hands to reach, grasp, and explore. B&w photos of babies smiling and reaching are paired with bright yellow pages with cartoon images of little ones smiling, crawling, and playing, as well as a simple verse: "Hungry baby wants some more./ Reaching is what hands are for!" Seven tips for adults offer useful suggestions for interacting with babies ("Your hands can be a 'baby toy.' Demonstrate waving, clapping, and reaching") and encouraging motor skills. Simultaneously available: Eat. Up to age 2. -- Publishers Weekly
