1: Great book--but no Squishy Turtle
My 8 mo-old son and I both LOVE the Squishy Turtle so I thought I'd try a similar book. While The Fuzzy Bee has great things to touch and feel (especially the beetle and dragonfly wings) and the same crunchy front cover the Squishy Turtle has, the Fuzzy Bee's rhymes aren't quite as catchy. And there are two less pages--as others have noted.
Good book, provides a change of pace from the Squishy Turtle (which my son has "read"/looked at/played with at least once a day since he was only a few weeks old). But recommend getting the Squishy Turtle first.

2: Brilliant Colors
I purchased this for my 7 month old grandbaby - it has become her favorite as she likes looking at the brilliant colors & especially likes the 'crinkling' sound the "book" makes when she grabs it!

3: daughter sqeals
My daughter is coming up to 5months old, and has been 'reading' this book for about a month. She has become accustomed to the narrative and squeals at certain words and pictures. I feel that she has enjoyed it more as she has grown.
I also have 'Squishy Turtle' from the series. Fuzzy Bee is her favourite. I believe it's because there is more contrast in the colours than in 'Squishy Turtle' (which is mostly blue and green). The primary yellows and reds are sure to catch a little one's vision.
The 'story' includes a ladybug, snail, beetle bug, dragonfly, worm, and a butterfly.
An example of a rhyming couplet:
"Keep moving snail, you're really slow, You've got a long, long way to go".
The only reason I deducted a star is because the materials used for the creatures (made for baby to touch) could be better. For example, the ladybug has a somewhat shiny black material for her dots. But the shine is so subtle that it can't be noticed by a baby. Good ones include beetlebug's and dragonfly's wings. Also, the rhyme and pictures are engaging enough, the crinkly first page is great for the ears, and the cloth aspect is perfect for babies who like to chew. I recommend it.

4: BEST FIRST BOOK FOR BABY
We had this book as a gift, when our daughter was born...she loved it! It was used constantly!Just fades a little when you wash it. Great buy!

5: excellent for infants and toddlers
i purchased the cloth reindeer book first for my nephew when he was around 11 months old, and after my sister in law was still having to read it for him in march - i purchased all the other priddy cloth books for his easter basket. several months later these books are still his favorites. they are brightly colored with fun features like crinkly textures and flaps to lift up and explore. i hope new ones come out so i can add those to his collection!
