This isn't just a book; it's a piece of engineering. Most 'baby books' are actually parent-fatiguing cardboard slabs that get soggy and gross within a week. Indestructibles solve the problem of the 'mouthing' phase by being essentially a washable, un-rippable piece of high-tech fabric.

Content-wise, it's basic. It’s faces. It’s emotions. It’s exactly what a six-month-old needs to see. If you're looking for a deep narrative, look elsewhere, but if you want something that can survive a trip to the bottom of a stroller and a bath in apple juice, this is the gold standard.
