This box set is good value. It costs about $15, and to buy the books individually would cost about $24. If you're thinking of purchasing any 2 of these books individually, you might as well buy this box set and essentially get another 2 free. As far as the books included, this is a pretty good set. However, if you're only going to get one Boynton collection, my personal recommendation would be to go with the Big Box of Boynton: Barnyard Dance! Pajama Time! Oh My Oh My Oh Dinosaurs! as the Barnyard Dance! and Pajama Time! are in my top 4 Boynton Books (along with Happy Hippo, Angry Duck, Hippos Go Berserk). Now, my specific book recommendations: The Going to Bed Book is great. A bunch of animals live on a boat Noah's Ark style, and practice their evening routines before going to bed. The rhythms of the story are great, and you can almost hear the sounds of the animals thumping up and down the stairs and jumping around on the deck as they exercise. It's short, sweet, and fun to read. Horns to Toes is pretty silly. The book tells the story of several monsters showing off their various body parts. It's a bit long and boring for my 10 month old who loses interest pretty quickly, but my sense is that a 2-year old would love this one because for the most part, humans have all the same parts. However, every so often horns or tails are thrown in for humor. But Not the Hippopotamus tells the story of a hippo (shocker) who is not included in any activities that other animals are participating in together. However, at the end she is invited to hang out with all the other animals. Unfortunately the armadillo is not. I'm sure almost every child will experience times when he/she doesn't feel included, and I think the book sends a good message about having empathy, patience, and fortitude as eventually everyone tends to find their place (and sometimes even hippos unintentionally leave the armadillos out). Opposites covers a lot of ground in terms of big/small, etc. etc. There are lots of Opposites books and I don't think this is the most original. It seems to borrow from Dr. Seuss. However, it's good and typically silly and full of rhythm as you'd expect from Sandra Boynton. For a throw-in book, it's fun and educational for young kids.

This set is THE BEST of Boynton for very young kids (like 0-3) & maybe the best baby books EVER. Volume II collection is much better than Vol.I. I read these books w/my daughter when she was a baby & continue to give them as gifts to new parents. They're very educational but also very sweet, funny, & INTERACTIVE (betw. you & your child), esp., if you're an animated reader. The Going to Bed Book is the best bedtime story I've read for very little kids (0-3, & up). (Goodnight Moon great for toddlers.) Eventually my daughter & I memorized it, & I'd recite it every night as I tucked her in. Horns to Toes is equally great, easily teaches counting & body parts, & so fun to help kids find the same parts on their own bodies. Opposites is also fabulous: a really cute, funny way to teach abstract concepts (like in/out, on/off, loud/soft, etc.). "But Not The Hippopotamus" is very touching but also a bit sad; deals w/feeling left out. One could argue that it's good to give kids a place to relate to issues that they have to reckon with anyway. Boynton has very cute characters & a great sense of humor, & her books capture a lot in a very small span. I don't know why this collection isn't in stores anymore, it's really a fantastic group and makes a great gift. Guaranteed these will be the books you reread hundreds of times w/your little ones & want to save because they are filled with happy memories.

How can you not love these books? The drawings, colors and the simple words keep my granddaughter's attention. Even is we don't read the books to her, I find her looking at them and studying them. They are a great addition to a toddlers library! Love these!

Bought this for our toddler granddaughter. She loves this whole series. She can’t tear them up and loves flipping through the pages. She insists mom read them to her over and over.

With the price and quality of these board books, you can't go wrong! Sandra Boynton is a classic children's author whose fun little board books are perfect reads for babies through toddlers. They are simple, cute, and fun with good quality illustrations and humor that will entertain even adults. Board books often run between $5.00-$10.00 for just one book, but this set of 4 comes at a great price and make the perfect baby shower gift. The books included really are some of her "greatest hits" and are great collections to any baby or toddler library. The colors are vibrant, the materials are solid, and you will enjoy reading these again and again until you can literally recite them by memory! My husband's favorite: But Not the Hippopotamus. My favorite: The Going to Bed Book.
