Any website that opens with a gigantic pop-up ad front and center has my instant and undivided skepticism. Doubly so when I see a big bold title like LITERACY BREAKTHROUGH: Children as Young as Nine Months Are Reading With "Your Baby Can Read!(R)," the Revolutionary Early Language Development Program From Smart Kids(R). Which I don't find too different from those books which claim your dog can read too. Honestly, is there anything out there that can't read? How 'bout puffins? Shall we go teach our puffins to read?
Seriously, though, can anyone confirm that a 3 month-year-old can read? Aren't they a bit wobbly for that? I'm all for reading from Day One to little 'uns, but my credulity, she is being stretched here.
Thanks to Jen Robinson's Book Page for the link.

Random comment, as I check your site today:
THANK YOU for putting copyright dates (and other publishing info) on your reviews. It makes me crazy to read a blogger’s positive thoughts on a book but then, when I try to get info on it in order to try to read it myself, I have no idea if it’s ten years old or just out. Not that it matters in terms of simply reading it, but, well, I’m a nerd and want my publishing info. So, thanks!
Jules,
You are very welcome!
And thank YOU for leaving us the nice note!

Thank you so much for reviewing my book. Sitting in my studio in England U.K hearing your thoughts and comments is a great thrill!
My best wishes to you all, Simon.
Hi Simon
We loved the new book too, where Baby Brains tries out as a Rock Star!
Loved your podcast about Simon James’s book Baby Brains. He has such fresh, intriguing ways of looking at life. I’ll have to rush out and read it! What a terrific idea, your coffeeshop conversations! Thanks.
