We were given Pat-a-cake along with All Fall Down when they first came out and my 10m old daughter LOVES both books! Not only are the images wonderful (and multi racial), and the rhymes enjoyable, this book also allows interaction. We read through each page patting the pictures. I can only imagine that as she gets older it'll become even more fun! We leave them on the floor with her toys and on several occasions she's crawled over to the book and started patting different pages on her own. I've already given the two books as a bundle at baby showers twice and I plan to continue to give them at many more.
I borrowed this book from the library and my daughter loved it so much I purchased it. I love the illustrations and the sing-song rhyming words. It's a nice short, bed time read. It's a bigger size than the other board books I own. The illustrator includes a range of faces and races. I am a person of color and appreciate that my daughter sees characters who reflect her.
I should have read the reviews more closely. It is clearly stated by others what the book is about. I thought it was the traditional Pat-a-cake poem which I was looking for to give my grandson. Though the book is fine, I was a disappointed.
My baby loved this book so much when we borrowed it from the library, we bought a copy. The illustrations are colorful, the poem has a nice rhyme and cadence to it, and the book is a great size for little hands to hold on their own. My baby still loves this book. We read it every day.
I've had this book along with "All Fall Down," also by Mary Brigid Barrett, for about a week now, and my 17-month-old absolutely loves them both -- she's been requesting them nonstop since we got them. Pat-a-Cake is a really cute take on the old nursery rhyme that asks, if you can pat a cake, what about all sorts of other things, like a pickle or a tomato? The silly, sing-song rhymes are a lot of fun, and my daughter loves the bright, cheerful illustrations. Highly recommended!
