From School Library Journal
PreS?Toddlers love to look at pictures of babies, and the excellent, full-color photographs of adorable, multiethnic group of infants and toddlers are the saving grace of this book that is overloaded with concepts. Body parts and their functions; faces reflecting emotions; things to be counted, identified, noticed; sounds; actions; foods; and objects to be paired present a lot of information. The connection of all of these things to the human body is sometimes tenuous, but always present. The items and situations are readily recognizable, and young children will have fun pointing them out. The format is busy, sometimes cluttered, but the pictures are so clear, bright, and lively that they are absorbing and appealing. The text is generally simple, consisting mostly of captions and questions. However, the occasional flowery adjectives seem inappropriate for the intended audience.?Patricia Pearl Dole, formerly at First Presbyterian School, Martinsville, VA

From Kirkus Reviews
In a trademark format--crisp photographic images set against a milky white backdrop--Priddy's exploration of the baby's body, with its dozens of separate full-color photos to be pored over and mused upon, is easy for children to linger over. There are pages on body parts (genitalia given a wide berth), their names and functions; facial variety and expression; things the body can do, from hiding to thumb-sucking to clapping. There is a counting page devoted to body parts, and a mix-and-match spread where eyes are coupled with sunglasses and the match for a baby's bottom is a potty. The principal text is comprised of labels, with a few short descriptive captions (``high mountains covered with snow'' and ``a street at night with twinkling lights'' among them), allowing readers or preliterate observers to plumb the images on their own.
