    A counting book all about babies! Cue the cuteness and chubby cheeks in a sturdy board book sure to have little ones rapt.

    One baby peeks out upside down. Three babies share a swing. Eight babies ride in a shopping cart. How many squish in a bed? Childlike illustrations, a happy palette of blue and yellow, and vivid numerals from one to ten catch babies’ and toddlers’ attention in this adorable counting book from Forest Xiao.
    Each page is simplistic yet captures the mood of the characters perfectly. Vocabulary is easy to follow along, allowing for rereads with ease. . . . This is ideal for infant story times, tummy time classes, or for caregivers to grab from any board book collection.
