Customer Reviews

how clever!
What a super cute gift... even more fun for mom than for baby! terribly witty.

Very cool.
I love this book. I bought this one and Eco Babies Wear Green. I read it to my two-year old son and he loves it. For him the pictures are nice, for me I love the tongue-in-cheek humor. That baby is sooo cool (and his mommy must be too). These are definitely activities I want my son to be interested in. Granted, I do take my son to yoga and I jog with him in the stroller, but I want him to be interested in the other things the baby does in this book such as going to a galleries and eating at nice restaurants (without throwing stuff).

A must-have for today's modern babe!
As soon as I saw this book (before my daughter was born), I knew I had to have it! The concept alone sold it on me, and the clever copy and cute illustrations are fabulous! It's unique and refreshing--a breath of fresh air. I love it! A perfect gift for contemporary couples ... for city-dwelling playmates ... or for yourself! Very cool!
