Amazon.com Review:
"Judy can pat the bunny. Now YOU pat the bunny." Sound familiar? Pat the Bunny is a part of childhood, as soothing as cocoa and animal crackers. Dorothy Kunhardt's interactive book for babies and toddlers was one of the first of its kind when it was published in 1940, and it has since sold over six million copies. We pat the soft fur of the bunny, play peek-a-boo, look in the mirror, and then do it all over again. (And again and again and again.) After you Pat the Bunny with your baby, why not Pat the Cat and Pat the Dog? These two sequels were written by Edith Kunhardt, the daughter of the author of the original book. Both use the same tried-and-true Pat the Bunny format: sturdy cardboard pages with eight activities that wee ones can explore, from sniffing some brownies, to squeaking a teddy bear, to unfastening Grandma's tennis shoe. The simple line drawings and pastel colors don't do much for adults, but somehow they are just right for babies. This boxed set is a fine choice for a baby gift or first birthday present, and a lifesaver on a long car trip. (Baby to preschool) --Marcie Bovetz

My all-time favorite first book
Each of my babies enjoyed this interactive book, where they got to pet the bunny's soft fur on one page, feel daddy's scratchy face on another, etc. I purchased this book as a gift for a new parent, & it arrived quickly and in excellent condition.

small for a baby
I have got to read the dimensions better on products I get! I do this a lot. It is much smaller than I had imagined. It is, as it says, 5 inches by 5 inches. I was picturing it bigger. It is a little small for my 7 month old. I will have to wait to really get use of it.

classic
I loved this book as a kid, and I just gave it to my sister for her impending infant.

Good Book, Poor Quality for the price.
This book is just begging to be ripped apart, I did not realize how flimsy it was from the picture.

baby sower gift
This is a great gift for a newborn- a first book. Also. an older sibling can read the book to a new brother or sister.
