Review

These adorable "Counting Primer" board-books are brought to you by Gibbs Smith publishers, and they are truly adorable. If you want to get your little bub interested in Jane Austen as much as you, then you can't go past this. With gorgeous pinks, greens, blues and other dusty colours it's the most elegant children's book I've seen in a while, and if your child is learning their 1 to 10 then this is a must buy.

-- Jennifer Duke ― thebennetsisters.wordpress.com Published On: 2011-07-07

A small compact cardboard version of a book - easy for a child to hold, unrippable and chewable. At 22 pages, it was both compact and lightweight, but what will ultimately appeal to parent and child is the Pride and Prejudice theme. . . . I was awed by the choice of characters, Regency clothing and objects used and the ease of the text..

Charming, whimsical and historical accurate, Pride & Prejudice: A BabyLit Counting Primer offers the very young reader an early introduction to Jane Austen, planting seeds for her total world take-over!

-- Laurel Ann Nattress ― Austenprose.com Published On: 2011-08-03

What do board books and classic novels have in common? A new series from Gibbs Smith brings classic writers like Lewis Carroll, Charlotte Bronte, Jane Austen, and William Shakespeare to toddlers by creating oversized board books with bright colors and easy to understand words. BabyLit board books are a must for every travel savvy parent's carry-on luggage.

-- Tina Buell ― Trekaroo.com Published On: 2012-04-24

Perfect as a gift for a literary-loving expectant mother or to introduce your little one to the classics, BabyLit® has brilliantly created primers out of classic literature such as Pride & Prejudice, Romeo & Juliet and Alice in Wonderland, written by Jennifer Adams and illustrated by Allison Oliver. Four of the titles have even been turned into iBooks and are available for purchase on the iBookstore. Not only that, you can purchase prints, stuffed character dolls, buttons and totes that correspond with each of the tales. How adorable would these Pride & Prejudice prints be to decorate a little girl’s nursery, complete with a Mr. Darcy doll? I’m honestly in love with these products!

I was impressed with the format of the text and bright images. I also loved the simple interactivity that can be found by touching the pictures on certain pages. Children will love to find the sounds of people talking, horses neighing and music playing as they read this story.

I love the colors in this book. It’s really sturdy, too! I originally ordered it because I needed something for my baby’s shelf, but I think as she gets older we’ll be taking it off the wall quite a bit to read/count with it. I can’t wait to order more BabyLit books!!

A lovely beginner book for the future literature lover!

Reviewed in the United States on July 11, 2013

Verified Purchase

I bought this for my youngest niece for her 2nd birthday, because I wanted to introduce her to Jane Austen at an early age and thought that since her older sister (13) and mother both love Jane, this would be a favorite book.
I was pleasantly surprised by the lovely drawings (I would love some of these on a t-shirt) they were simple drawings reminiscent of something from long ago. When the book was read to her for the first time, it elicited amused approval from her mother and sister.
I can't wait to get some of the other books for her for Christmas (so I have a legitimate excuse to read them ;)) And am happy to see new titles being released soon, for some of my favorite authors like Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
I highly recommend these lovely books for anyone who loves the classics and wants to pass on that love to their children and have fun themselves reading them to their little ones.

So, this is flippin' adorable. I bought it while looking for kindle books to read to my 2 year old, and as soon as my Austen obsession collided with this baby verson, I HAD to have it! It's a counting book, and Baby loooooved counting the pictures with me, as I told her a little about each thing we counted, adding to this book with tiny details from the original. And we had FUN! I intend to buy her the actual board book for her little book collection we've started. I also fully intend to grab more of this cute little series.

Lots of fun - good shower gift

Reviewed in the United States on March 24, 2012

Verified Purchase

For those of us who grew up lusting after Mr. Darcy in the BBC Pride & Prejudice mini-series, and who are now old moms, this is a great gift. In all honesty, this book is probably more for mom than baby, but that's OK. The very idea of this book is funny. The 1 through 10 examples (e.g., 3 houses - Longbourn, Netherfield, Pemberley; 10 thousand pounds) are clever and meaningful to fans of Jane Austen. The pictures and counting are also interesting to babies on some level although I can only anticipate how many questions they will provoke from a 2-year old (perhaps that's the point! Very conversational piece).

I got a copy for myself, and will be getting one for a close friend from childhood who also recently had a baby. Is it my 10-month old daughter's favorite book? No. It probably never will be. Will I read it to her repeatedly and hope she eventually sees the genius in it on some level? Yes, of course.

Baby Literature Books that are Accurate!

Reviewed in the United States on January 24, 2014

Verified Purchase

As a literary educator, who holds a Master's in English, I was quite intrigued with this book when I received it in a collection as a gift for my 11- month-old daughter. I absolutely love this book because not only does it help children with language acquisition and counting, but it introduces them to classic literary tales, albeit an abridged version, at an early age. My daughter enjoys the bright colors and the numbers as well as the additional information I give her about each section. For example, on the fourth section it says, "four marriage proposals," and I explain to her why Lizzy turned down Mr. Collins and then Mr. Darcy (the first time).

I purchased it for a baby shower gift for my friend.

Cute and Functional

Reviewed in the United States on June 29, 2015

Verified Purchase

I stumbled upon Jennifer Adams board books through Pinterest. I thought it was such a wonderful and cute idea. Fun for both the parent who has read the classic and for the child since it's a board book.

The illustrations are simple, beautiful, colorful and a wonderful way to introduce children to counting. I do think that after the number 5, it gets a bit staid. I just think that they could have find more imaginative uses for the numbers, rather than 6 horses or 8 musicians. It also needs to be noted that this book is simply a number counting book, not an abridged children's version of the story. So if that is what you are expecting to show your children, than do not order this book.

Overall, I am very happy with the product. And I look forward to ordering more from this author.

Perfect for Jane Austen Fans

Reviewed in the United States on October 6, 2016

Verified Purchase

This book is fantastic! I am a huge fan of Pride & Prejudice and think the book is just darling for my 9-month old. It is considered a numbers primer so on one page, there will be a number and the other page will be the corresponding amount of something. It counts from 1-10. For example, there is a page for 4 marriage proposals and on the next page there is Mr. Collins to Lizzy, Mr, Darcy to Lizzy, Mr. Darcy to Lizzy again, and Mr. Bingley to Jane. It also counts things like money, soldiers, houses, and other places that the book talks about. I highly recommend this as a sweet book for parents who love classic novels to share a little bit of Jane Austen with a small child.

cute board book for austen-loving parents!

Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2012

Verified Purchase

though my kids are way beyond the board book age, i saw this version of "pride and prejudice" and *had* to get a copy just to make my jane austen library complete. (i also have the marvel comics versions of "pride & prejudice", "emma", and "sense and sensibility.", but that's another review.)

counting to 10 is just a device to let the parents in on the details of the books, ending with the ubiquitous "10,000 pounds a year!" uttered by the awed mrs. bennet. at least 2 other friends of mine (whose children are also beyond the board book years) decided when i showed it to them that they were also going to purchase it for themselves! very cute artwork and presentation, keeping with the modern take on the regency genre. kudos to the authoress.

I suspect this will be more fun for the parents. But it's nicely illustrated. And my son seems to like most of the pictures. So while its cleverness is lost on the toddlers it's meant for, it's still fun for them anyway.
