This baby seems to do everything at warp speed because the word "zoom" appears on each page. He or she (it is hard to know for sure) zooms up high in dad's arms, zooms around the grocery store where this clever kid picks up a pinwheel which then becomes part of each subsequent scene. The most amusing one is the final illustration showing exhausted parents sitting under a tree while their baby chases a butterfly—"zoom baby!" A companion board book is entitled Splash! 2006, Frances Lincoln Children's Books, Ages 1 to 2.—Marilyn Courtot
Overview
”Zoom up high, Zoom down low . . .” Some of the earliest lessons baby learns involve movement that mimics a plane or a car or a train. This board book, with its gentle watercolor images and easy text, helps baby express him- or herself in this way. Written by renowned author and illustrator Sarah Garland, the book features short lively text with a simple refrain to captivate both baby and parent.
