I Love You Little Kangaroo

I LOVE YOU LITTLE KANGAROO is a cute board book that will appeal to babies and young toddlers. The book walks through some animals that rhyme with kangaroo, before getting to the mirror page where the book says that it loves you too. The collection of animals includes a cockatoo, emu, shrew, and caribou.

What I loved: This is a super simple concept, but babies will love it! Repeating phrases ("I love you") and rhyming text are great for the littlest of readers, and the mirror at the end only adds to the fun. The book moves super fast and features stunning images of adult-child pairs of animals on each spread. As the animals are not labeled by relation, this works for any caregiver to read to a little one. The watercolor imagery is gorgeous on each page, making this fun to look at, and the very thick board book pages make this quite sturdy for even the rough readers.

What left me wanting more: As a small thing, the mirror is very bumpy and warped, so it is tough to really see into it.

Final verdict: I LOVE YOU LITTLE KANGAROO is a lovely board book that will be a pleasure to share between baby and caregiver.

I LOVE YOU KANGAROO is a celebration of parental love of all kinds of different species. Each of the animals rhyme with the word "you" to make the text flow rhythmically. Each picture represents a baby animal and their parent as they let them know they love their little one. The illustrations are bold and vibrant with a bright watercolor art style. In the back of the book is a mirror for a special surprise so you can tell your little one how much you love them too.


Final Verdict: I would recommend this to parents to share with their children because it's short and sweet while being perfect for even the youngest of ages. The board book style has thick and sturdy pages making it more durable for babies to hold as well.
