What an adorable masterpiece! - Maternity and Baby's, Sandy A must have for every new baby. Babies love to look at faces and expresssions. This is so well designed and illustrated. I bet every baby will want to hold this book and get lost in its images. Diverse and on point. Thank you Jodi Dee. This will be the gift for my grandchildren. - Mother's and Infants Reviews, Carol T. KIRKUS REVIEW Three babies and their mothers struggle with car-ride grumpiness in this picture book. When a baby starts to cry in the back seat, Mommy pulls over to figure out what's going on. But after checking the diaper, the mirror, and the bottle, Mommy's out of ideas. Back on the road, Mommy finally decides to try a lullaby: "So she sang sang sang / and to her relief relief relief," Baby soon falls asleep. Dee's simple text features repeating words in every phrase... The list of things to check when a baby is in tears is likely to be familiar to small-lap readers and helpful to new parents in figuring out what their steps should be in a similar situation. While the focused story is thematically well done, the real highlight is the images. Dee and Seydjoo's illustrations offer similar backgrounds for each of the three mother-baby pairs in the book. The families are coded as white, Black, and East Asian in heritage, but each mother handles her crying child in the same comforting way, and the love in each case shines through. The emphasis on the mothers' and babies' faces, whether crying or calm, is sure to draw and hold the gazes of the youngest lap readers. This family tale's inviting themes and images make it shine. The sounds of a mother's voice is the first sound a baby hear, and this voice becomes the foundation of all language in the first few months. The Mommy and Baby bond is an unbreakable bond, for these very moments they live. And, the car is one of the places we so often are. I wrote this story to showcase how the love and caring of a Mommy builds.  I used to sing and hum little songs to each of my children and it always soothed them and made them fall asleep. Our voices are a gift to share! Baby Baby Baby is the start of a beautiful series coming! Of how a baby experiences its first experiences of life and how that relationship grows with those who care for him or her. As Baby Baby Baby cries, Mommy Mommy Mommy tries to figure out why. Sometimes even a short car ride can be a challenge. Join Mommy as she tries everything, until the sound of her voice finally calms the baby to fall fast asleep.
