Splash, Dash! and Gallop from our branch of your wonderful public library system. We loved them both. Sadly, the library is now out their copy of Fish, Swish! Splash, Dash! because my 14 month old ripped a page. We now own it and will continue enjoying it.Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04725549451973770515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21301089.post-34210909540203066112008-03-04T22:25:00.000-05:002008-03-04T22:25:00.000-05:00Look for writer/illustrator Barbara Reid's books t...Look for writer/illustrator Barbara Reid's books too.

And I'd highly recommend any of the photo board books by Margaret Miller--the clear color phots really attract babies. Both my girls loved them and I've often given them as baby gifts.The Library Ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14321601076252214546noreply@blogger.com
