Books like Global Babies

I checked this book out because my son adores the other book in the series, American Babies (reviewed here). Unfortunately, we still have American Babies checked out because he asks for it by name. I fear we are going to have to buy a copy.Anyway, I much prefer Global Babies. The text is your run of the mill I-want-to-poke-my-head-with-a-fork type of board book, rather than the I-want-to-embed-this-fork-in-my-brain-NO-WAIT-in-the-author's-brain kind of board book that American Babies was. Bonus points for not featuring babies with boogers.The edition I checked out is bilingual with Spanish/English on each page describing the babies from all over the world. The babies are as diverse as their clothing, with the Thailand baby in some kind of ceremonial headdress, while the Fiji baby is just in a tshirt. I like the book. Better text, better pictures, two languages, and you have a winner in my book. Unfortunately my son loathes this book. Try to offer it to him and you'll get a disdainful "no." Try to offer it to him when he is asking for American Babies, and he will take this book away from you.This leads me to uncomfortable conclusions about what kind of baby we are raising, and perhaps we need to get out and about more beyond family gatherings and library story times. I'm giving it two stars because while I like it, the most important person does not.
