So cute! I love how the author made sure to include a diverse range of fairy tale creatures in one book, rather than having just the common ones that everyone thinks of right away. Additionally, it's really clear what each of the creatures look like, which is great for a board book. However, I do have one critique to make. I would have liked to see the drawings in color. Having the entire book in black and white felt...odd. It also made the book very dull and boring. I think that adding color would both make the book more appealing to readers of all ages, and give little ones a good head start on noticing colors, which will create a pathway to color recognition. Other than that, though, I liked this book!

I think this book would have been better if it were longer. I also did not find the illustrations to be very well done. The black and white contrast was nice though.

This book introduces the young ones to magical and fantastical creatures founds in fairytales, with a much simpler design and their silhouettes! The contrast of black-and-white artwork is great! The art also features smaller corresponding elements which children would love to notice. You can play with shapes, recognise the silhouettes and count the patterns/designs!
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for providing me with an e-ARC in exchange for an honest review.

This is such a cute children’s book! Perfect for itty bitty ones who can only see certain colours. I love this as an option to introduce them to fantasy early on. Can’t wait to add a physical copy to my littles bookshelf.

Ogres, fairies, leprechauns – a selection of fantasy beasts are here in black on white – and white on black – for the biological confusion of little minds in bodies that can probably barely hold a book by themselves. I'd have preferred colour, and I won't go into all my thoughts about starting a reading career with the non-existent like this. I guess some spiritually-minded parents will love the chance this offers, but I can't see the bulk of people raving over it.
And is that really the plural of 'pegasus'?

Baby Sees Fairy Tale Creatures is a fun way for parents who love all things fantasy to introduce their children age appropriate fantasy creatures.
The black and white images of the book has a positive benefit to young babies and helps to encourage focus. The illustrator alternates between simplistic images with some details and silhouettes of the creatures introduced.
This book can also be used to start introducing the concepts of numbers as there are different amounts of the fairy tale creatures on each page, allowing you to broaden its use.
The one thing I would have liked to see for the book to be a touch longer.
I was given an ARC of this book in exchange for my honest feedback. Thank you to the publisher and Net Galley.

A beautifully illustrated book and a book that I think babies would enjoy looking at.
Thank you Netgalley and the publisher for allowing me to review this book.

Simplicity at its best. Baby Sees Fairy Tale Creatures is exactly what it is. It is fun, simple and eye catching, for baby that is.
I would have loved to see a little more but I had to remind myself that it is a board book for babies. I would have definitely picked this up for my kids when they were wee little lords.
I love the simple single image for each creature and then the contrasting patterned page using the same image. That was a nice touch
