What's going on, zebra? Quack quack, baby duck. Hola, baby owl! Making connections between images on a page and the real world is an important building block for your baby’s communication skills—and this charming introduction to ten baby animals, paired with friendly greetings and bold, basic patterns, provides a great high-contrast experience for young developing eyes. As newborns’ vision is not developed enough to recognize colors, severe black-and-white contrast of patterns and images allow their eyes to differentiate between what they’re seeing. Sure to grab little ones' attention! Also available: Hello, Ocean Friends and Hello, Garden Bugs. Coming soon: Hello, My World.

A delightful book with high contrast black and white pictures of a cat, mouse, chicken, hen, duck and other animals specially designed to appeal to babies. A pleasure to share and talk about with a baby, or for older babies to look at for themselves.

For the first 0-9 months of their lives, babies respond well to simple black and white patterns. For short periods of time, high contrast black and white images support their visual development by stimulating optic nerves. Because babies' retinas are not fully developed, the images teach their eye muscles and brain to coordinate, which also aids in developing their eyesight. First Baby Book offers a multisensory experience through strong black and white patterns that aid babies in developing the ability to focus their concentration and attention.
