Books : Elmo's World: Balls! (Sesame Street® Elmos World(TM))
Rating: 
- For the Little Ball LOVER
I bought this for my 18 month nephew who LOVES balls and this is his all time FAVORITE book. The book is less about Elmo and more about all the different balls. It is not a literary work, which is why you have some parents who gave it poor reviews..... but a HUGE HIT for that little one who has a love and fasination with balls.

- Balls!
My 16-month old would not sit still to read a book. I have been trying for months. I have to turn the pages very quickly and talk about the pictures so that we can complete them. Once I showed him this book last week, he will sit and let me read the whole thing and then he likes to go back and re-read all of the pages and point to the balls for me to identify them.
The flaps are a bit flimsy for his age-group. But, if I help him, I know that they won't tear or bend.
Rating: - Decent book for Elmo lovers
We've learned the names of all the balls with this book. It's a good one with a "door" to open on each page. Not too busy and a good quick read.

- Durability is a problem
My toddler daughter has loved other books more intensely than this one so I was surprised when this one started coming apart in a few days.
First the flaps all ripped off. Then the cardboard pages came loose from the binding. I tried salvaging the pages for her to use to make stacks or just to gather up and put into drawers, etc. since she likes Elmo. Then the paper started peeling away from the cardboard. By that point, it was just garbage.
I've had similar problems with the construction of other Sesame Street board books, especially very small ones (usually seasonal, like Halloween books). I've never had a Sesame Street board book last more than a couple of months. None of my daughter's other board books have fallen apart like these so I know it's not her treatment.
The content is fun and the photos are a nice change from pen-and-ink illustrations but what good is a book that practically disintegrates in a month or two?
Rating: - My daughter LOVES this book!
We have four Elmo's World books and this one is my 17 month old daughter's absolute favorite. Night after night she will pick this book for me to read to her. It is a really simple book with nice, clear pictures. We have read this countless times and yet she continues to love it. Highly recommended!
