Everything Is Mama (Package May Vary)
Everything is . . .
MAMA!
Jimmy Fallon, one of the most popular entertainers in the world and NBC's Tonight Show host, was on a mission with his first children's book to have every baby's first word be DADA. And it worked! A lot of babies' first words were DADA. However, everything after that was MAMA.
So take a lighthearted look at the world from your baby's point of view as different animals try to teach their children that there are other words in addition to MAMA for familiar objects and activities, now available in board book.

Bought for my nephew, who loves it and learnt to say Mama from the book! So it works...

We have the Dada book and wouldn't you know, our girl's first word was Dada. They just started making the Mama book as a board book and we got it yesterday. The book arrived in great condition and we've read it a bunch already. The pictures and sayings are cute and she repeats back to me "mama"...now if I can just get to recognize that I am Mama.

I liked the book, but having paper pages instead of board pages was a really poor choice! This is a book for babies/young toddlers who are learning to talk. They are not ready for paper pages on books. My almost 1.5 year old has already ripped some of the pages out. 🙁

I love this book. It is a great addition to the "DADA" book. HOWEVER, why, why, why was there no option for the "MAMA" book to be a BOARD book??????? My grand daughter loves her "DADA" board book. It has survived almost flawlessly for over a year. Not so with the new "MAMA" book. Yes, the cover is hard bound, but the pages are PAPER! She has had it for 3 hours and the pages are crumbled already. Seriously, who expects a 15 month old to be gentle with anything?! Who DID NOT realize that the same age group that pages through the "DADA" board book would also be paging through the "MAMA" book with paper pages with same lack of gentleness for paper!!! These two books will become the newest craze for baby shower gifts. I would've given this book 5 stars had it been a BOARD book. Disappointed.

Pretty boring book, every page has about 2 words on it. Would be a good Gag gift just for fun but not educational at all.
