媒体推荐Nothing Says, "Shut up kid!" like a Board Book by: Tina Buell I love vacationing with my son; it's the getting there that frazzles my nerves! Reminiscent of The Impossible Dream from Man of La Mancha, traveling with small children requires nerves of steel! Long flights are especially hard. Managing mood swings and temper tantrums while remaining seated has even me asking the flight attendant, "Are we there yet?" To avoid toddler apocalypse while in transit, I pack classic novels as a distraction. On our last trip to Nevada my preschooler read both Pride & Prejudice and Romeo & Juliet. Is my son a gifted? If eating boogers and spontaneously screaming the theme song to Fan Boy and Chum Chum is a sign of genius, then yes, yes he is. What do board books and classic novels have in common? A new series of books from BabyLit! BabyLit board books from Gibbs Smith brings classic writers like Lewis Carroll, Charlotte Bronte, Jane Austen, and William Shakespeare to toddlers by creating oversized board books with bright colors and easy to understand words. Written by Jennifer Adams and illustrated by Alison Oliver, the BabyLit series brings literature alive for little ones. Some are counting primers, while others like Little Master Carroll: Alice In Wonderland simply share important words that sum up the story. Board books are a wonderful way to engage your child's interest while traveling; they keep small hands busy and give tiny mouths something to chew on. Nothing says, "Shut up kid!" like a board book. BabyLit board books are a must for every travel savvy parent's carry-on luggage and a surefire way to bring a smile to even the rudest flight attendant's face.

网友对Romeo & Juliet: A BabyLit Counting Primer的评论
This board book is super cute for the sheer fact that someone has turned R&J into a children's board book. The art is very pretty, but I was definitely hoping for a little more on the inside. I agree with the people who said the number 2 should be for 2 households and I agree that the 5 friends are not all friends! But my 16 month has no idea about Shakespeare and she's happy to throw the book at our cats. She also enjoys reading it upside down, so go figure. I'm happy because the book is cute and she's happy because she has a new book. I ordered Pride and Prejudice so we'll see how that one turns out!
I realize that this is a children's book and only meant to teach counting, but I couldn't help noticing a major inaccuracy that I (as a Language Arts teacher) do not really want my child to grow up thinking because she may be a bit confused when she actually reads the play. I am referring to the page that speaks of friends and labels most of the men from the play as "friends". When I read this page (to my 6 month old daughter mind you), I found myself saying (imagine the reading voice for a young child here while pointing) "But they aren't really friends because he kills him, and he kills him, and he kills him". Otherwise, I LOVE the book!
We bought 5 Babylit classics and Romeo and Juliet is my son's favorite. He eagerly anticipates the last page where I give him "10 kisses" really fast and sometimes likes skipping to it. The pictures are colorful and he likes touching these more than his touch and feel books.
My 2 year old loves the colors in this book. The "story" is ok, some of the items counted don't make sense and/or aren't exactly how the play goes. My main complaint, as the parent of girls, is that Juliet is drawn with her eyes closed. It bothers me that my daughter thinks the female character is "night night" for the entire book.
Amazing illustrations, and creative way of including aspects from 'Romeo & Juliet' into tangible baby education. This is *not* a baby-abbreviated version of the original story. I highly recommend - just don't order thinking it will be the real 'Romeo & Juliet' baby style ;)
