It really was great starting about 3mos. old. He was able to participate in the reading by following the suggested motions. He enojyed it so much. This is the second one that I bought. I love this book for little babies. The first won just survived the frequent reading with my first child. I really recommend this for a first book.
The story itself is a classic, but I was disappointed in the quality of the book considering the cost
As an aside, couple of terrific bunny-books that I recommend for youngsters are: "The Country Bunny and the Golden Shoes", (I can't say enough praises about this it, though it was published in 1939)., and "Home for a Bunny", a beautiful Golden Book. If you do buy it, I suggest that you put it out of the child's reach after you read it. Amazon has the "big version" which is hard backed. It's cute and inventive, but it is NOT sturdy enough for toddlers.
The "Country Bunny" is sold in the soft-cover version here. Or buy high-quality board books instead. Ours fell apart right away. This "Pat the Bunny" book is exactly like the one I got for my boys 20 years ago when they were small. Also the story and activities were not especially engaging for my boys.
The story is sweet, and the illustrations so beautiful that I still love to look at them.
I was looking for a book that has touch and feel for my baby and this book said it did but was the most rediculos book ever.
My son ripped it to shreds the first day. Unless its for sentimental value. You're better off with Hello Bee Hello Me
