Newborn babies love looking at faces. In fact, the human face is the first thing that your baby will come to recognize. This is why I’ve designed this friendly high-contrast book of faces just for babies. Very young babies will be attracted to the black and white designs at the beginning of the book and then can progress through the contrasting colors as they start to see brighter colors (around 2-4 months), and eventually, lighter tones. The smiling faces will provide comfort and familiarity as your newborn tries to make sense of their brand new world. Each face has been carefully designed in a simple manner to make it easy for the baby to recognize the basic features of the face, and to incorporate shapes and patterns that will stimulate the baby’s vision.
