Pat the Bunny (Touch and Feel Book) Review
User Submitted Pat the Bunny (Touch and Feel Book) ReviewsOctober 9, 2008 disappointed I was born and raised in another country, so I didn't grow up with this bunny, but I heard so much about it and was told it's a classic. I decided to purchase one for my son. I have to say it's a major disappointment because 1) it's poorly made that's not strong enough to sustain an infant's pulling, chewing, and abusing, 2) the sharp edge of the book always seems to hit my son's face (I'm afraid it will scratch his eyes one day...), 3) the fabric in the peek-a-boo page is very weak that it probably will come off in a few months, 4) the smell of the flowers is so storng (considering I try to buy everything organic and without perfume), 5) Daddy's scratchy face? it's a piece of sandpaper which is so rough that I would not let my son touch it in case it hurts his soft skin. Overall, I think it might have been a great concept in 1940, but time has changed and so should the construction of the book itself. October 4, 2008 Needs better construction My son does love this book...especially the peek-a-boo page. However, I don't know why it's not constructed better. This book was about $10, and the pages are a thick paper instead of board book material. Since this book is geared towards the little ones, they really should make this into a board book. How much more expensive can that be? There are other touch and feel books that are board books that sell for $5 or $6. September 15, 2008 attracts attention - a timeless classic This little book which I bought on impulse turned out to be the best of the activity books for my son, now 13 months old. He is easily distracted and this book (coupled with his father's additional stories about the bunny) helps him stay focused and stimulates imagination. It is also very helpful at the evening meals, when he is so fascinated that even the tiredness does not make him fuss over his cereal. He literally screams in delight whenever we take the book out. The simple drawings, mild colors and especially soft fur of the bunny make this book an essential for every baby. I cannot recommend it strong enough. A classic, it will sure be a great gift for many generations of babies. August 30, 2008 A Classic Book This is such a timeless classic! However, I do have a complaint regarding the packing -- the box was broken on one corner, resulting in a bent page. Perhaps some bubble wrap would help in future mailings of this book and others that come in their own box. August 13, 2008 Classic Baby Book Pat the Bunny is the best first book to read to your baby. My daughter is fascinated by the bunny and the beard. If you receive two copies at your baby shower like I did, keep both because it will be loved to bits. August 11, 2008 Not all that sweet Overall just kind of cheap feeling. I'm pretty sure my daughter will destoy this soon. The bunny fur already came off in big clumps with the first pat. I would return it but who has the time as a busy mom?? July 7, 2008 Overrated This book is not as great/classic as it is proclaimed to be. I look at Alborough and Boynton books before I look at this one. The art is horrible, its too european (mummy), and too blonde haired and blue eyed. My daughter likes it, but not as much as her other rhyming books. June 9, 2008 Pat the Bunny - Too Cute If you're looking for a cute book that also stimulates the senses, this is the book for you and your children. A reader and activity book all in one. May 25, 2008 wonderful for reading to babies This book should be read to every new baby ... I've read it a million times for my own children ... and presented it to new parents. It is a book the baby will love through the years!! May 23, 2008 good book but not durable This book is very cute and my son loves it. It just falls apart so easily though and can be very frustrating. For more Pat the Bunny (Touch and Feel Book) reviews click here.
