5.0 out of 5 stars A treasure for teaching shape recognition to little boys!
Reviewed in the United States on February 3, 2017
Verified Purchase
I love Robert Louis Stevenson and our boys are in to pirates right now so this has been on my list for a while. We got this for our two-and-a-half-year-old as a Christmas gift from his brothers. He LOVES it (and so does everyone else).

As with just about all of the Baby Lit books, the illustrations are tasteful and colorful, with good contrast. Clever, layered detail and text allow you to work with the story on different levels to keep it fresh at each reading and with multiple age groups. Our children also love to read these by themselves. In this one, each new page has a shape faced with an illustration that incorporates the shape in different ways and shows a character or object from Treasure Island. The recipient and his five-year-old brother love to play a game where they name the shape, then point to all the places in the illustration where they see the shape. The two-year-old knew some of his shapes before, but he's mastered everyone in this book since Christmas, including some of the less obvious ones like "crescent," "diamond," "oval," and "cross."

5.0 out of 5 stars My son LOVES all of these books
Reviewed in the United States on April 19, 2020
Verified Purchase
We probably have about 10 of these books (Midsummer Night's Dream, Romeo & Juliet, Treasure Island, Jabberwocky, Sleeping Beauty, Frankenstein, Dracula, The Odyessy, Sherlock Holmes, Les Mis) and we plan on ordering more. Our son LOVES all of these books- the colors and pictures are really vibrant and large, and I love that each book teaches different things (colors, shapes, numbers, etc). I think they're all wonderful, and we just ordered another one. They're fun for us too as parents, because we know the source material and it's fun to see how they use classic novels and stories and bring them to young children. Definitely recommend all of these!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good for 18mo-2 1/2 years to teach shapes
Reviewed in the United States on August 31, 2017
Verified Purchase
While this is not my favorite of the BabyLit books I've purchased, my 18 mo olds like it. When I read the shapes, I use my finger to trace around the pictures and reinforce the shape. My girls find this very interesting. I can see us reading through this as a learning tool for many months to come, because as they get older I can describe more about the illustrations. One thing to note is that the printing is intentionally "fuzzy" (for lack of a better term) on each book page. I thought this was a defect at first but then I looked back at the book cover photo on Amazon & realized it's supposed to be that way, lol.

If you're a lit junkie and have a baby, these are amazing! I now have 7 different ones and love them all!

(Just a note ... I haven't purchased any of the colour primer books as they use the American spelling of 'colour' and I'm from England - nothing wrong with it, just thought it was worth a mention).

5.0 out of 5 stars Una manera muy divertida para enseñar a los pequeños figuras
Reviewed in Spain on December 29, 2016
Verified Purchase
Estos libros son un encanto. Hay que entender que todos no son como libros tradicionales. Este trata de enseñar figuras a los pequeños de una forma original. Es importante reconocer que eso es su fín, y no contar la historia. Obviamente consigue dicho objetivo utilizando elementos del argumento del libro La Isla de Tesoro. Las ilustraciones son ideales y a mi hija de un año le encanta.

Its not really introducing your child to classic literature other than the title. Its essentially a shapes book which is great but i thought it might have told a watered down version of the story. It would have been helpful to have a look inside option as i wouldn't have bought it.
