The Fussy Baby Book : Parenting Your High-Need Child From Birth to Age Five Customer Review: I had one High Needs baby and one Colic Baby
“High Needs” and “Colic” are very different.

If you are going to buy this book, understand that colic babies get over their colic and then they are usually “normal” babies.

ABC: A Child’s First Alphabet Book B is for boy . . . but in Alison Jay’s ABC, B also stands for basket, beehive, and butterfly.

I bought this book for my 3 year-old son and he loves it. The illustrations are really beautiful and it is a sturdy book that is perfect for young children. I highly recommend this book.
Customer Review: Makes the Alphabet Exciting for Children and Adults Alike
I recently discovered _A B C: A Child’s First Alphabet Book_ by Alison Jay. What a delight! Each letter of the alphabet is given a full page, if not a two-page spread. The text is very simple, following the “A is for apple” format. Both upper- and lowercase versions of the target letter are shown.

Born With a Bang: The Universe Tells Our Cosmic Story : Book 1 (Sharing Nature With Children Book) In this first of a trilogy, the Universe tells its own life story of chaos and creativity, science and struggle. Time after time the Universe nearly perishes, then bravely triumphs and turns itself into new and even more spectacular forms. Eventually it turns stardust into you. This story begins in the very beginning, and ends with the formation of Earth. The second book From Lava to Life: The Universe Tells Our Earth Story tells of tiny new living things and ends with giant dinosaurs. In the third book, mammals rise and so do you (available spring 2005).
Customer Review: Not good for K-2. Pictures awful- blobs of color and swirls.
Anti-particle, hydrogen globs, planetary pups…..I felt myself doing all the explaining, when I was hoping the book would do that for me. The pictures are just swirls of colors- never shows a final product “A picture of an Earth”. Almost like something make-believe in my sons eyes. Jennifer Morgans “Lava to Larva” 2nd book summarizes this book in just a few pages. Dont care care for it much either- same goofy pictures, doesnt show evolution of man.
Customer Review: “Fruity” mixed with good science
I didn’t realize what people meant by refering to this book as “New Age” - basically the “Universe” is narrating the story and “dreams” of people and trees and planets. The timeline and discription of big bang and star life cycles is great - but I am uncomfortable with the “wishes” and “dreams” and “feelings” of a universe.
