Customer Reviews

Rock-a baby rolls!

I gave this book to my granddaughter when she was nine months old. It fast became her FAVORITE book! The rhythm and short rhymes are easily remembered and dearly loved. She is now 16 months old. I would love to find a NEW edition...alas it is out of print and only available in Used books. The sturdiness of the flaps and the construction of the book would be better in a lift a flap format. We'd love to see Rock-a-Baby 2! Will Jan Ormerod please consider this?

Brilliant for Babies!

My 8 month old daughter loved this wonderful book and claimed it as her favourite. It features wonderfully illustrated images of babies of different races, all enjoying a game of peek-a-boo in which the reader can join in by pulling down the flaps to uncover a different smiling toddler on each page. Being an English mother of an Anglo-Chinese baby, I was delighted to find illustrations of Oriental babies in this book and I have enjoyed asking her 'Where's the Baby?' in Cantonese too! The best book I've purchased for her so far!

My son's favorite book - Captivating

This was the first book I was able to get my son's attention with. Since he was about 4 months old, I have been reading this to him. Now at 11 months, he still loves this book, plays peek-a-boo on his own, and will bring us the book to read to him every night. The book has withstood his excitment and attempts to open the flaps. I would recommend this book to any new parent who wants to read to their child at an early age. It's perfect!!! I'm buying a second one for my niece and her new parents.

Perfect book for a young baby!

My 10-month old son LOVES this book! The flaps are sturdy enough to withstand his fumbling attempts to open them and pull them down to "peek". The pictures are big and familiar to him, and the text is very short. This is BY FAR his very favorite book -- and we have many!
