Rating :  - A Hit WIth My 1 Year Old, BUT....
I used to work in a book store, and as far as I've seen this is by far the best teeth-brushing book on the market for wee littles. HOWEVER, I dislike the text and modify it. Surely you can have a book showing animals brushing their teeth without teaching them something untrue about science. I know I will get poo pooed by less sensitive parents, but why lie to your kid when you don't have to? I change each kind of an animal to an individual: ie, "Every lion brushes every tooth every day," becomes "Lion brushes..." Likewise, the repeated "Shouldn't you?" really grates on me. I skip it or say, "Can you?" I mean, which makes you more likely to do things, feelings of shame/obligation, or competance/being challenged?
All the moving parts work well in my copy. Several move in a way that are very difficult for little hands. One of the toothbrushes got ripped out when I let the baby hold the book for a moment by herself. I don't see this as a problem, as long as you categorize this as an activity requiring adult assistance. You can let your little one floss the shark's teeth and manipulate the moving parts on a couple of other "easier" pages as young as 1 year.
I would recommend this!
