| It just feels right: the orange is bumpy, the cushion is soft and silky, and on each page (or double-page spread) of this board book there's another texture to explore. Pages are organized by shape--circles, squares, stars, et cetera--and all the images are color photos on a white ground. Several images appear on each page, one of which has a textured insert.

This is our second touch & feel book and my son really enjoys the new textures introduced in this book. Not neccesarily the best touch & feel book out there, but still decent.

This Dk touch and feel book is not their best. It feels like they just slapped a few ideas together and didn't really try to come up with real-life, meaningful texture examples. I agree with the other reviewer who said it was repetitive; it is! Enough with the buttons already! Plus, the textures seem forced, like the best idea they had for "fluffy" is a pencil case? and "shiny" is a star that feels bumpy? The examples don't seem relevant to a baby's world. (...)

My son is only 5 months old, and he seems like picking up all the book-like objects, so I don't know if he is especially interested in this book or not. As a parent's opinion, I like the different texture it offers to my kid to touch in the book, that's why I have bought quite some "touch and feel" style books for my baby. But I find this less perfect. I find this book not too creative and imaginative. They always use "buttons" as one of the examples of many shapes. For example, when they introduce circle, there are buttons; when they introduce square, there are buttons; and even heart shape, there are buttons. They could have chosen a greater variety of objects. "Cushion" is another object that appears a lot. In both the square and in the star shape sections, there are cushions. I think they could have at least use star fish instead of cushion in the star shape section. That will help the kids to learn more about different things besides different shapes.

My son is one-year-old and he LOVES all of the touch and feel books that are published by DK Publishing better than any others that he has. They are constructed of the extra-thick cardboard (many others are not) making them very durable, which is necesary for children around his age. The new Touch and Feel Shapes book is wonderful. It is filled with brightly colored illustrations and features some new textures not found in other touch and feel books, e.g. an orange peel, a satin pillow, etc. It has numerous examples of common objects to demonstrate each shape and the names of each object written out below them. If you don't have any of the DK books for your child, get this one and you'll see just what I am talking about--you'll end up like me, waiting for DK to publish another one!
