We own shelves and shelves full of cardboard books, of all shapes and sizes but this book for whatever reason is my sons favorite book. He is 14 months old right now, and he will pick this out of all the other books and carry it all around the house with him opening up the little flaps and laughing. He will give it to me to read to him, and it actually keeps his attention!

I got this for my son almost 2 months ago and it's one of his favorites. He's 10 months old now. It's a very small book but the pages are thick cardboard and the flaps are cardboard too which I love because they are a lot harder to destroy than flimsy paper ones! It has a lot of pages that are illustrated very well. I love it.

This is a great book. It covers shapes, colors, opposites, animals, the whole nine yards in a fun and interactive way that really engages and stimulates little minds. Best of all, it is REALLY durable!

When we got this book my son was instantly drawn to flipping the flaps up to see what animal they were talking about. He really enjoyed this book. Great book with a great price.

I bought this book for my 2 year old daughter. She loved it from the first minute. She opens the doors over and over. And then she "reads" to me...
It's a nice little book with lots of flaps. And it's just the right size for little hands. We'll buy this book for our little friends.

This book has been read and thoroughly enjoyed throughout our entire family. It's been read, reread a million times I'm sure, worn out, and bought for numerous shower gifts. It's just one of those "staples" out there that should be included in all baby showers. The flaps are just fun for tiny hands to flip open and the surprise they find inside usually provides lots of squeals! Very nice book, great for a diaper bag because of its small size, great price. Recommend!

I purchased this book for my 18 month old son. He loves to open the special doors. Open the barn door is a sweet book and stands up to my son's not so gentle approach to reading. The doors are a little tough to open for him alone as they stick. But it holds up quite well.

My daughter loved this book! It has lots of flaps with adorable pictures of the animals. It is a great book for toddlers who love animals!!

My 13 month old son LOVES this book. It is small - just right for his little hands. He brings it to me wanting me to read it with him all the time and often indicates that he wants me to read it *again* right after we finish! He loves opening the flaps on cue and then closing them again once I read what animal is inside. He is not always gentle with the flaps, but the book is holding up well. This kid has a LOT of books and this is definitely his favorite right now.

I have two twin granddaughters- they are 19 months old now. We have read them this book so often that we are now on the 2nd copy and they still love the book. It's highly recommended. I agree it's not very large, but it has worked well for us.

My 16 month old boy LOVES this book. It is the perfect size for little hands and fun to read together.

My daughter picked this out recently for her 10 month birthday, over bigger, flashier books, and it is still one of her faves weeks later. She had just learned how to lift the flaps on her Spot book, but she prefers this one. I thought it looked kinda "made in china", small with retro / low budget illustrations compared to the other baby board books, but what can I say. It makes her very happy, and that's all that matters. If there were more in this series, I'd buy them all! -A happy mom and happy baby.

My son would make sound when he opens the barn door each time we read to him. It's very interactive and enjoyable to read plus it's perfect for small hands.

My 16 mo old daughter LOVES to read this book and can lift the flaps on all of the animals. I LOVE its petite size! It easily tucks in her diaper bag or my purse for instant entertainment if we get caught in a slow checkout line at the grocery store. We read it over and over both at home...and on the go!

I ordered this thinking my little girl would absolutely love it. She does, but the book is about 3 inches by 3 inches. Tiny book.

very good for teaching "who" questions and working with farm animals and the noises they make. my preschoolers love working with this book and opening the flaps to find the farm animals they love

Trust the reviews, this is a tiny (pocketable), invaluable book for at home or on the go. It is a staple in my baby gift baskets too! My son (22mo) has been attached to this book for over 6 months, and now knows all of the animals and the sounds they make. It is truly a gem, and for the price, add it to your cart!!

My daughter is 20 months and just loves this book. She can't stop opening the little flaps on each page. It keeps her entertained, plus she learns about the animals and sounds they make when I read it to her.

This book is very durable and small enough for baby to hold himself. Excellent choice! (Makes an excellent stocking stuffer too.)

This lift the flap book has stood the test of time. Its easy for a baby or toddler to hold and the flaps are easy to use too. The animals are recognizable and the text is simple. It's a book I regularly give as a new baby gift.

Our 2.5 son received this for Christmas - is it very small and we get through it quickly, but he LOVES to sing "Old McDonald had a farm" so this was perfect for him!

My daughter loved this book to death, literally! I am having to buy a new one!! She now looks for flaps to lift in all books, which isn't necessarily a good thing, but this is the one book that I could read to her over, and over, and over and over!!!

This book may be small, but it's sturdy and has tons of pages for its size. It's perfect for throwing in our "to-go" bag. My 15 month old son loves it!

Love the contents of this book - it's just so small!!! If it were bigger, we would have a much easier time holding it while opening the flaps.

I bought this book for my second daughter when she was still in my womb! I got it after seeing it how my friend's kids adore it. As it turns out my daughter absolutely loves it. She is now 18 months old and picks this book daily to read over and over and over... The pictures are simple, bright and clear. She loves to lift the flaps and see which animal is waiting for her and we both giggle our hearts out as we make the sounds together. A pure joy of a book for both child and adult. The favourite series of my older daughter is Why Some Cats are Rascals, Book 1.

I too selected book primarily as it was an inexpensive book ( with good reviews) which helped meet a free shipping requirement ! what a gem.. Small yes, but my 14 month old son loves it !.The flaps are beautifully designed into the pictures and it is such a delight to see his face light up each time we lift a flap. . Yes the flaps are a little snug, but we do it together.. I loosen them as he turns the page and he then thinks he is doing it all alone ! Its nice and small, so its very transportable. I was looking for more of these... Zoo animals ???

This is a great book. My son flips up every page; he loves it. It's nice and compact which makes it perfect for an on-the-go book. I just bought a bunch to have on hand to give with baby gifts.

This books associates animals with sounds and is great for a child who dose not yet read. There are no words, you make the sound of the animal and your child is suppose to identify the correct animal. There is a flap that hides a picture of the correct animal that you can open to display the correct answer. Fun little book but quite redundant and not challenging enough for a kid that already reads.

Perfect for your diaper bag and for those times when your infant/toddler is whiny...the open the door flaps will keep them occupied for a little while. Good value too!

This book is simple and cute. It's a nice size for little hands and sturdy too. The flaps are a bit difficult to open when you first get the book, and I actually tore a few of them. All in all, this is a cute book to introduce animal names and sounds to a young child.

I like this book but it is really small. I was hoping for a good bedtime book but this one has ended up in the car for independent reading. The kids have a hard time with the flaps because they are really small. There are better lift the flap books with farm animals out there.

This is a cute little board book for the children in my home daycare.

My 19 month old son LOVES this book. He has us read it to him over and over again.

I gave this book 5 stars because if you manage your expectations, it more than delivers. At 4"x4", it is small, compact, light and portable--great for a NYC mom like me who carried it with me everywhere we went during the 9 month-2 year period of my son's babyhood. It was great at simultaneously demonstrating the lift-the-flap book concept and introducing farm animals and their sounds to babies. As my son grew older, (as kids do with their toys and books), his relationship and engagement with the book evolved as well and I found him thoroughly enjoying not only the flap-lifting, but also combining reading of the book with intermittent breaks of "Old McDonald" stanzas. For a small book, it has a lot of punch.

My 21 month grandson is really into books with doors with surprises and this is his favorite of all.

Well, I managed to purchase an item that was 24.99 from amazon.. one freaking penny more and it's free shipping... Well, I've made a bit of an effort to help expand my son's choices of books to read before bead-time so I chose this book to meet my $25 minimum.

He loves the interaction and has chosen it 4 of the past 5 nights for his bed-time book. I'm sure it's just a matter of time before he moves on to a new book, but for right now... it seems to be the book of the moment.

The book would be good for a child in the pre-reading age and may not be good for a child who lacks soem finer motor skills. The content is nice and allows he and I to interact and prompts questions about various farm animals. it's amazing how... when you try... almost any book can promote educational benefits... even one about farm animals.
I'd definitely buy this book again.

We love this book! It was an instant favorite. The pictures are cute and the book is sturdy. It is small, as mentioned in other reviews, but I think that's a good thing since it takes up less space in the diaper bag! I would recommend this to everyone.

I bought this for a friend's son, and I think he really likes it. The illustrations are oh so adorable, and there are little doors that you can open upon turning each page with a little surprise behind each door. It was a perfect stocking stuffer, and the quality was worth far more than the low price I paid. I highly recommend it.

My 22 month old loves this little book. She opens all the flaps, which are pretty sturdy, and says the animal names and their sounds, which is why I bought this book. It is very small, about 3 inches square. It was a great item for her stocking at Christmas.

My 1-year-old loves this book! It is small so he can hold it himself and it fits in the diaper bag. He loves the animals and finding them hidden behind the flaps. I can't tell you how many times we've read it since Christmas. I would definitely recommend it.

We really love chunky lift a flap books and wish that you offered more of them to buy. This is a great book! The quality is excellent and our toddler loves looking at all of the animals and lifting up the flaps. Would definitely recommend to another family!

My son is 17 months old and he loves this book! He loves to look at it everyday and enjoys opening the barn doors and gates to find the animals.
It's a very small book and I wish it were a little bigger, but I am really glad we made the purchase!

We purchased this book for our 16 month old daughter, but we have not really read it too often, so I am not able to give an accurate review. I thought the book would be larger than it was; it is a small square chunk book. My daughter doesn't love barn animals, so it's not one of the books that she pulls off her bookshelf. It is a cute book though.

We bought this book for my oldest daughter (now 8) when she was about 1 year old. She loved it! She read it over and over again and it eventually fell apart. We bought another one for our second daughter, who also loved it and read it and read it. Now, our third daughter has discovered this book and it is the first book she picks up out of all the books in our house. I would say that it was by far the FAVORITE book for all of our kids, from about 10 months up until 3 yrs old.

My 12 months old loves this book! He lifts the flaps with no problem and turns the pages as we read. The flaps are sturdy and have stood up to his tugging. He doesn't chew on books, but he likes to toss them around and this one has really held up. We also recommend "Lift a Rock..." by the same author. These are great books! My older daughter's favourite series is Why some cats are rascals

My 10 month old daughter loves this book and other flap books like it. She'll dig through her toys to find them and spends much time going from page to page opening and closing the flaps!

Great for fostering a love for books and reading!

I'll be buying more flap books like this one!

We buy tons of books for him and he picks this one out of the pile every time.

This book is a favorite with my 21 month old. We got it when she was 18 months old when she already had many animal books. But she always goes back to this one. It has great illustrations and is sturdy, flaps aren't easily wrecked. She shakes her finger at the goat biting on the sock ("no, no bite"). We now 'knock' on the doors before we open them, so it is new all over again to her. She is speech delayed to it is great hearing her try to say 'cockadoodledoo'.
