First, I want to thank my friend Susan for recommending Karen Beaumont's book, Baby Danced the Polka! This is a sweet book with wonderful text, artwork and lift-the-flap details that make it a delightful book to read with our own children or to share as a gift.
Baby Danced the Polka tells the cute and fun story of a couple with their little baby living on an old-fashioned farm. The farm is an interesting setting, and ma and pa are trying to do their chores -- interesting chores, like starching long johns and fixing chow... and baby is supposed to be taking a nap... but... baby wants to DANCE!!!! And so, baby dances all through naptime with a variety of toy animals, cat, pig, cow and sheep.
In the end, the whole family dances the night away together.
Nearly every page has a lift-the-flap that shows baby dancing and dancing.
I love this book for the great words and lift-the-flaps and also the happy family relationship, along with the real and very familiar situation of mom and dad tring to get some things done during naptme.
