Taggies Touch & Feel Soft Cloth Book with Crinkle Paper & Squeaker, Molasses Sloth

I got this as part of a baby shower gift and it turned out so cute! I can’t wait for the baby to use it

My little one loves to chew on the tags on this. He loves crinkle books and surprisingly is picky. He likes this one a lot. I would buy it again as it was super affordable.

My baby loves this! He loves grabbing the different tags and putting it in his mouth. The textures aren't tough and the colors are attention grabbing. When it looks like he's starting to lose interest, I just squeak the front page and it grabs his attention again! Material is good and feels well made like it will last for a long time!

The baby loves this- it comes along in the car seat during road trips and he teeths on it and loves to make crinkle sounds and look at it. A big thumbs up!

Cute

A favorite book of 2-year old nephew!

The book itself is great; cute pictures, lots of colors and sensory input for baby with the tags and crinkle pages.But the “story” is absolute nonsense. I thought for sure we must have received a misprint copy, that they forgot to print another sentence or even forgot a page…but nope. It’s just pointless. I appreciate that babies don’t actually understand a storyline or need a comprehensive narrative but as a parent, I definitely prefer one!We have purchased 2 other books and both had cute little complete stories! No idea why they decided to just say forget it with this one.

Most books for babies are simple. They don’t know the language; they’re just listening for sound and looking at pictures. Yet, most books have a theme: baby animals or shapes. Or if no theme, a simple story to satisfy our innate idea of narrative. This book has neither… or does it??? In multiple rereads of the three pages of text I have gone from thinking this has nothing to everything and back again. Is this a commentary on capitalism, because the sloth refuses to hurry, choosing sleep instead? Is this referencing the nature v nurture debate, as the sloth sleeps despite being told not to? Or did someone just write a bunch of words in comic sans in five minutes to fit the pictures already generated? I’ll literally never know because this book has broken me.

The Crinkle Paper is in pages 1,2,5 & 6 and the squeaker is in page 1 & 2. I love the quality of the soft book. The details and texture of the Sloth is awesome. Last thing, my first boy loved tags and there are so many tags in this book. Hope #2 will have fun exploring too.
