PreS?This lift-the-flap book has sturdy pages and an adequate rhyming text. Each spread presents something baby will have for breakfast-milk from a cow, an egg from a hen, honey from a bee, bread from a baker. However, the flaps lift to reveal no surprises, and the cartoon-style gouache artwork is done primarily in dull shades of brown, green, yellow, and red. The endpapers are decorated with small repeating pictures from the main illustrations. An adequate, but nonessential, purchase.?Emily Kutler, Summit Free Public Library, NJ

When it comes to making Baby's breakfast, this board book takes a sunny-side-up approach. Each page features a cheerful gouache picture of a smiling animal, person or insect, each of whom contributes a special ingredient for the meal. What they offer (a cow: milk; a chicken: egg; a bee: honey; a baker: bread) is hidden behind a gatefold flap (a cow peeks out from behind a barn door; the oven door hides the baker's golden loaves). Poulsson's (1853-1939) simple, four-line rhymes on the facing pages let the characters say their piece ("Said the hen, 'Cluck cluck cluck!/ I have laid an egg/ For the Baby's breakfast?/ Take it now, I beg!' "). Debut artist Cecil's pictures, however, do say it all-especially the final one, showing Baby in breakfast bliss. Ages 1-4.
