Nonfiction Monday: What's Inside Your Tummy, Mommy?
Cocovini, Abby. 2008. What's Inside Your Tummy, Mommy?
What's Inside Your Tummy, Mommy? is a "nine-month guide for parents and kids to share!" according to the cover description. As soon as I saw this one, I knew I'd have to read and review it. It's oversized. It uses illustrations and simple text. There is a spread for each of the nine months. Each page is sprinkled with facts. For example, on month four, the reader learns that "the baby pees 15 times a day" and for month seven one of many things we learn is that the baby's "weight can double this month. That's like a ten year old boy turning into a man in just four weeks." But as informative as the book may be, where it really delivers is in the illustrations. See for yourself:
I'd definitely recommend this one for those with expanding families.

I just sent this to a young friend of mine who is pregnant, and has a four year old daughter. I'm sure they will both love it. Thanks for the review, Becky.
