To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzes reviews to verify trustworthiness.

Great addition to any library. Bought for a baby shower gift.

First the illustrations are amazing, every one showing another kid, so chances are that your little one will ressemble one of them. Sadly they’re all white kids, so there’s that. That being said, the book is, in addition of looking great, very sturdy. « You are my Sunshine » is one of the lullabies I sing my babe to sleep with so this book was a must. I’m glad I bought it and I wholeheartedly recommend it!

I bought this when I saw the comments about it. But it is very basic, has only 4 pages... It takes like 30 seconds to read it even when you sing the song.. I don't understand why it had so high ratings...
It maybe good for 0-3 months old, but it is hard to believe that this can catch the attention of your baby after 3 months. Mine didn't care about it at all.

Not worth paying 6-9 dollars to just sing it the first verse. Said 12 pages so i was hoping it was the full song or a story. But its literally the first verse.

Sweet book, bought as a gift. Book was thrown in a box with heavy & liquid items, no other protection so now there is damage to the edges & cover. Not impressed!! 😒🤦🏻♀️

Photos are super dreary at times and thought it’d be a bit more uplifting… hope our baby will take an interest soon as she typically loves this authors books.

If you already know the song by heart (very easy), I wouldn't bother buying this. Unless you're teaching to read the words, I guess 🤷♀️

Delightful little book for tiny hands -- great for a sing-a-long as well.

This little board book is SO cute! The image of the cover doesn't quite do it justice - the sun is shiny and almost reflective. It is definitely enough to keep my 3 month old's attention. This makes an excellent baby gift!

Appalling condition
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 16, 2019Verified Purchase
Bought this as one of our presents for our boys first birthday. The boom looks second hand. Has scratches all over the book cover and corners are peeling away. Looks used?
Sadly I only opened the delivery day before sons birthday so had to use the book as present or would send back.
Very poor condition
Sadly the resolution of pictures taken on my phone don’t show the poor condition of the supposedly brand new book.

Great little book but too short
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 2, 2016Verified Purchase
Such a great little book, bright and colourful. The only downside is that it's shorter than the song, it only has the first verse of the song so it finishes way too fast. At least for my baby who loves books and is not very happy when they're too short.
