ABC Baby Me! - Review

ABC Baby Me!, is an endearing alphabet board book, perfect for cuddle-time reading with the little ones in your life. Its quiet rhyming text walks the reader through a day in the life of "baby" with key words represented by each letter of the alphabet.

I will try not to gush over Ali's illustrations but I can honestly say that I would even if she wasn't a friend. Her charming style and warm color palette marries so nicely with Susan B. Katz' writing, while her illustrative choices kept the scenes dynamic and entertaining. How cute to use a doggy for "tickle", for example.

I particularly appreciated how Alicia handled the layouts. Using vignettes, she managed to incorporate a diverse group of baby's and their caregivers. However, each spread was dedicated to one baby, giving them substance.

Ultimately, Ali uses a full color spread for the last page which, for me, gave it a satisfying conclusion to the book visually.

Ali, the enjoyment you felt working on this project exudes off the pages and I know many families will make this a staple in their home libraries for years to come!

Tomorrow, Alicia will be sharing some behind the scenes experiences while working on this project so be sure to join us for that. =o)
