I'm a Baby! is an adorable and engaging book that kept my toddler's attention the whole time. The cute and colorful illustrations perfectly complement the fun, rhyming text, which has a nice rhythm that makes it enjoyable to read aloud. It’s short and sweet—just the right length for little ones—making it a perfect choice for bedtime or a quick story during the day. Highly recommend for parents looking for a delightful read for their toddlers!

A day in the life of a baby. Cute, simple board book with fun illustrations.

The illustrations in I’m a Baby! are absolutely lovely, colorful, and full of life. The vibrant pictures bring the baby's world to life, and the cat in the illustrations is just as entertaining as the baby, often getting swept up in the little one’s daily adventures. It’s a short and sweet book, with a simple, rhyming text that captures the busy day of a baby in a playful way. That said, the font might be a bit challenging for younger readers who are starting to read on their own, but I can definitely see parents or older family members reading this aloud to them, which is part of the fun.

While the story itself isn’t groundbreaking in terms of concept—it’s a day in the life of a baby—it’s still a delightful read. The book covers everything from diaper changes to messy meals and naps, with a touch of humor throughout. It’s perfect for toddlers, especially those getting ready to welcome a new sibling. The simple rhymes and repetitive structure make it easy for little ones to follow along and even start memorizing the words.

Overall, I’m a Baby! is a charming, engaging book that’s sure to be loved by both kids and parents. The illustrations, fun rhymes, and light-hearted look at baby life make it a great addition to any toddler's library. It’s the kind of book that parents won’t mind reading over and over!

I love the artwork in this book. It’s whimsical and colorful and cute. And the story is simple, but nice, and the rhyming prose makes it very readable. I can see both kids and parents enjoying reading this one over and over.

I'm a Baby! by Terry Pierce, with illustrations by Volha Kaliaha, is a delightful, lyrical look at the life of a baby, brought to life with vivid pictures of the baby's surroundings. The cat in the illustrations is as much a star as the baby, as it finds itself caught up in the adventures of its miniature human, and the rhyming of the text ensures the story is fun and light.
This is the perfect book for a toddler expecting a new sibling, and is sure to be as fun to read aloud for the adults as it is to listen to and look at for the child.
Thank you to #FamiliusBooks and #NetGalley for the copy of #ImaBaby.

This was a really cute little rhyming book about a baby’s adventure through his day. It was a really quick read, and my friend’s kid really enjoyed it!

This is super cute! Just a cute rhyming book about a new baby, which is perfect to read to my little toddler about her new sibling coming! I can see this one being one she memorized and recites along with me.

This book was fun and silly. The illustrations are cute. There's a great demonstration on family dynamics (both parents are involved with the baby along with the big sister and the family cat). It contains a good rhyme scheme. The book goes through what activities are done with a baby for any family. There are realistic illustrations such as the mom being exhausted as the baby is eating dinner and making a mess. Overall, a great book!

What a cute board book! I love the engaging colours and type face. Board books are a very difficult field to navigate, especially because some are hard for babies to understand or seem like they are generated by AI. I like and will be recommend this one to friends, family, and more!

Really fun. Bright, engaging art. The cat nearly stole the show! I could have wanted maybe a page or two more....

The illustrations are sooo cute!! I thought it was a cute story, though I can’t exactly figure out who the target audience is. Is it a baby or maybe a child who’s about to get a sibling?? I think it would be nice if it was a little more clear on that!

How cute!!

These illustrations are so fun and I love the cat in every scene, super sweet touch!

I would buy this for my nephew to read to him in a heartbeat. Some children's books end quite oddly, but this one actually had me laughing with the last line and it was adorable. Definitely recommend.

I’m a Baby is about a baby. That’s it. But it is a kids board book, so what were you expecting?! The baby is very adorable and the text is cute and fun. I personally thought the cat was the real MVP! My 3yo enjoyed it! Thanks, NetGalley!

I’m a Baby is a great book to read to older siblings who will soon be around a new baby. This would help parents be able show siblings what they can look forward to when their new sibling arrives. It goes through diaper changes, messing eating, naps…. This would also be a great book to just have for a young child as they can point things out in a book (crib, cat, mama, dada, Dino, blocks, etc)

Thank you to NetGalley for an advanced reader copy in exchange for an honest review.
