"Fairy Books".......2007-01-20
I was very happy to find a book that contained all the "Fairy Books". However, the printing is so small you need a magnifying glass to read it. It is also very difficult to find the fairy tale you want because there is no index. If I had to do it over again I would buy the books individually, it is worth the investment
reads like a phone book.......2007-01-13
The format of this book is AWFUL- as unattractive as you could possibly imagine and on fairly cheap paper as well. Had I known it would be as bad as it was I would never have bought it.
TERRIBLE. Do NOT buy this book........2006-11-04
I was so excited to see that all of the "color book" fairy tale collections were gathered in one place. When I received the book I was VERY disappointed. No thought was given this volume, from the inappropriate cover image (stock photography of a rainforest frog?) to the pages within : no illustrations, no consideration given to the needs of the reader at all (just dense columns of small type intended solely to minimize the number of pages.) Poorly bound. All of which combine to remove any pleasure from reading these delightful stories.
Look for the individual colored books .... they're worth the effort.
Lot of value for the money.......2006-08-10
If you want all of Andrew Lang's stories in a convenient format this is for you. Ideal for the busy parent who wants to read a story a night or for the voracious child reader, for whom the small print is not problem. It may not be fancy but it's tremendous value.
Content outstanding; presentation poor.......2006-08-10
Having read Lang's Fairy stories when I was younger, I was truly looking forward to receiving this volume. To say the least, I was very dissappointed when I received it. How does this book fail? Let me count the ways;
1) The beautiful illustrations that I remember so well, are gone. There is not one illustration in the entire volume.
2) The Table of Contents is sorely lacking. The individual stories are not listed; only the books. Trying to find a specific story is challenging, to say the least. An index would have been helpful.
3) The print is SO tiny, that severe eye-strain is a definite probability.
4) What is with the tree frog on the cover?
My suggestion is, if you wish to read Lang's Fairy Book series, buy them individually. They are truly wonderful stories, but this volume is NOT the way to proceed. Buying them individually will assuredly cost more, but it will be well worth the price.

Queen of african violets.......2003-08-30
M's Van Pelt brings her considerable experience and knowledge to the writing of this book. At one time, african violets were the most popular indoor blooming plants.* This book came out during that first flush of popularity for violets.
This book not only has beautiful color photos, but detailed black and white line drawings. M's Van Pelt explains everything from "boy" and "girl" foliage to how to grow and show violets. There are a few outdated comments - there are now some yellow african violets and the internet has made swapping leaves a much quicker process. But her methods of plant care are clear and concise, based on the plants needs as well as the folks living in the house. If you're interested in african violets, I recommend this book highly.

Baby Book.......2007-08-31
I am very happy with this baby book. I browsed numerous baby memory books before choosing this one. I bought it for my first child and purchased another one for our second child. It is really comprehensive and covers a great deal of information. It includes pages for photos and has multiple pockets to hold other items. I also like that it continues until age 5.
Complete, but easy.......2007-01-22
I was given this book for my first son and I am back to purchase one for my son on the way. While I am not thrilled with the artwork, the book itself is wonderful. Easy to fill-in blanks for firsts, dr visits (height, weight, immunizations), milestones, etc... Their are also places to paste pictures if you are so inclined. The over-riding best feature, however, are the big pockets scattered through the book for storing items like locks of hair, umbilical cord stumps (gross I know but we kept it), special cards, hospital id, etc... You are not limited to the traditional keepsakes but can choose for yourself. Also, the book expands and has a band to help keep it closed and keep the keepsakes from falling out. I think it is by far the best baby book out there!
Fantastic keepsake for any child!.......2007-01-11
I was given a copy of Baby's Book: The First Five Years when my first child was born. I loved it so much I decided to purchase a couple more books for my other, 'yet-to-be-born' children. This book isn't just a baby book, recording valuable information and memorabilia for the first five years. It is a beautiful book, full of wonderful words and pictures and by far the best baby record book I have seen.
Easy to complete!.......2004-05-26
I had several different baby books to choose from before my son was born, and this is the one I went with. I'm not thrilled with the pictures printed in the book, but it is so easy to fill out (and you can always stick your own pics over theirs)! It also has lots of pockets to stick small mementos in. There is plenty of room for pictures. We even took it with us to the hospital to have his footprint stamped in.
The bulk of the book is for the first year, but the small sections for age 1-5 still have some of the "workbook" concept, to help you capture most of the important moments as they grow.

Good baby record book.......2007-08-01
I buy a baby record book for all my grandchildren when they are born and have typically bought the larger ones that are in a binder. Those ones are getting harder to find and are costly and this book is a great alternative. The pictures and sayings are cute with lots of space for your own photos and text. Nice that it goes to 5 years as well. Recommended.
Baby Book.......2007-04-05
This is good, reasonably priced book for tracking a child's history from birth. The books is well made and has plenty of space for information.
Book Description
More than just a baby book, this volume encourages parents to keep a record of their child's development from birth to age five, with special sections for the starts and steps along the way. Heartwarming images by Jean Marie complement the baby's pictures and mementos. Friends, milestones, birthdays, handprints, health records, holidays, parties and more will be recalled with fondness in this very important book.
Customer Reviews:
Great baby book.......2007-04-05
I love this baby book because it includes just the right amount of information. Some baby books leave room for so much information that I wouldn't be able to keep up and others are too skimpy. I also love the spiral binding. It includes all the things I look for; A place for an ultrasound picture, a family tree/chart, current events (president, gas$$, ect.) and it goes up to Kindergarten. The only thing this is missing is an envelope in the back for extra mementos and pictures. The other reason I didn't put 5 stars is because the cover looks like it's a "boys" baby book, but it could be used for either.
Excellent baby book!.......2004-08-22
This is an excellent baby book. While I was pregnant with my 2nd daughter, I looked at every baby book I could and just couldn't find a satisfactory one. And since I wasn't too pleased with the book I used for my 1st daughter I didn't want to buy another one. I stumbled across this book and love it! It has spaces for so much information, including pictures. I am so glad I found this book. I am going to buy one for my friend.
I love this Book!!!.......2004-07-27
This is such a great book to keep track of all your baby's milestones! They grow so fast, it's hard to keep up with them, let alone remember when they did what. It makes a great gift to all new parents and parents to be! The circus theme is so cute and it works for a boy or a girl! The babies in the photographs are just adorable!!!

Colorful, Creative and Whimsical Baby Book.......2002-04-26
I am pregnant with my first child and I have always felt that I had to have the cutest baby book. I searched through many baby books without finding the one I liked. Until, of course, I saw this one. The table of contents contained everything I wanted, such as a page on Mommy and Daddy, a place to put a pregnancy picture, and much more. I didn't know what to expect since I had ordered it online, but right when I got it and flipped through every page I knew this was the perfect baby book for me. If you want all kinds of colors and different creative designs for each page than this is the book for you. Every page has a different theme and design. It is really a beautiful baby book. This is definately not a plain, pink or blue book. It is perfect for boy or girl. It's wonderful!
Excellent Baby Book.......2002-04-09
I bought this before I knew I was having a boy. This book is genderless, with fun images. There is a space for mom and dad to write a letter to the baby, and it follows baby through the first five years of his or her life. I highly recommend this book.
Product Description

Cute book, but not what I thought.......2005-08-29
Without a doubt, a very cute book. If you're hurting for time and are looking for a quick, easy format for recording generalities, this is the book for you! However, I found a few things lacking. First, I wish there were pockets for keepsakes (hospital bracelets, ultrasound photos, childhood drawings, etc). And second, the lines to write on are very short, so if you write large or want to detail a particular event, it's not going to happen here. Also, I wish there were a couple of blank journaling pages (or even 1/2 pages!) tucked in here and there just to expound a little further on particular memories.
I love it!.......2004-10-05
my first five years is such a cool baby record book,l love the colors. it has plenty of room for pictures,it doesnt come with drawings that take alot space like others, and the questions are perfect.
A Must for All Moms!.......2004-07-27
This is such an adorable book! We received this book as a gift and truly enjoy it. The pictures are so cute. The photographer truly captured these beautiful babies in such a creative way. The Record book is so great. You can keep track of all your baby's firsts! Babies grow up so fast and I am glad I have something to write down all these once in a lifetime memories. This is truly something your child will appreciate in their later years. I am really enjoying this precious keepsake.
