****************************************
Corine Dehghanpisheh's #BabyLove: My Social Life is a hip, witty, and modern take on parents and social media. The author perfectly captures what it's like having an adorable baby in this social media age and wanting to share every precious, funny, and unforgettable moment of their little one's lives with the world...something I've been ALL too familiar with since my niece (now 2 years old) was born. With a gaggle of grandparents, aunties, uncles, and her mama and daddy of course, my sweet niece is definitely used to having a camera in her face and being Instagram famous ;)
Told from a baby's perspective and through clever, fun rhymes that flow effortlessly, #BabyLove: My Social Life is as smart as it is entertaining. The sing-song text will sound pleasant and lulling to little ones' ears, while providing plenty of laughs to parents. The bright illustrations, with their expressive characters and humorous details, create a happy, cheerful atmosphere.
Dehghanpisheh definitely explores modern parenting with gently, wry humor, but #BabyLove: My Social Life if full of a lot of heart as well and wonderfully captures the true essence of love, family, and joy.
This charming and amusing picture book is a fun choice for both parents and little ones.
