Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

PreSchool-Lach's text describes some familiar activities, each one matched with a painting by Mary Cassatt that lovingly depicts a moment between a mother and baby. The two-word rhyming phrases are presented against white left-hand pages with delicate pink borders. Additional color and emotional content are reserved for the right-hand pages, which show such scenes as a mother holding a napping baby, another reaching for a toddler's hand, and one checking the bathwater temperature. The pictures include a selection of Cassatt's work in several mediums: pastels, oils, etchings, and prints. The final pages offer descriptive information about the selected works of art. Adult caregivers and young children alike will be calmed by these tranquil paintings.

From Booklist

PreS-K. The work of the great American Impressionist Mary Cassatt seems to epitomize the ideal of motherly love. This small, lovely book includes images from 16 of her paintings, pastels, and prints in beautiful full-page reproductions. On the page facing each picture is a two-word chant: "baby sits," "baby claps," etc. The simplicity of the text combined with the clear, comforting art will appeal to infants and their caregivers, who will want to turn the pages over and over again. At the back of the book the paintings are reproduced in miniature, with notes about title, medium, date, and size. All the pictures are in the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Kathy Broderick

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful collection of Cassatt paintings for children

It’s always wonderful to introduce great art to young children, and these Cassatt works are especially an excellent way for a child to learn to connect to artwork. They are images and concepts the child immediately relates to.

5.0 out of 5 stars My baby loves this!
Reviewed in the United States on November 12, 2011

This is a beautiful and appropriately simple book for a very young baby. It was amongst the first books that my child could appreciate - the art of Mary Cassatt appealed to him even when he was very young - 6 months old. The pages are durable. Even though it is not a board book, it is still intact despite his abuses. Now that he is 13 months old, he likes to turn the pages himself. We have many books, and this is one of our top three. We read it almost every night. I am so glad I read the reviews here and got it.

This is one my 6 month old wants again and again. She is fascinated by all the babies and mamas. The reproductions of Cassatt's works are very high quality and the simple text makes it perfect for bedtime.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful and Educational Book!
Reviewed in the United States on September 8, 2004
This book is beautifully composed with the works of artist Mary Cassat. Each page has two simple words that describe a painting on the following page, making it suitable for the younger child as well as older child. Each of the paintings are of a mother and a child. The book begins with Baby Sits, Baby Stands, Baby Looks, Baby Hands and ending with Baby Hugs, Baby Kisses, Baby Loves. My 14 mo old is mesmorized by this book. She wants to read it every morning when she wakes up, at the very least. She started doing the baby sign that we had been teaching her with the pages that she knew the signs for such as drinks and reads. She also kisses and hugs us or her "Lovie" on the Baby Kisses/Hugs pages. Now she says "baby" and signs for book when she wants to read Baby Loves. My husband and I have been amazed at how much of an impact this one book has had on our daughter. Baby Loves is a wonderful way to introduce your child to the arts as well as promote language and attention to detail. The Metropolitan Museum of Art has done wonders with this book. There is also a very nice, classical piano Baby Loves CD to go with it. "Thank you" to the Welchs for such a special gift!
