Baby Loves the Five Senses: Smell!




Big, brainy science for the littlest listeners.

From the duo behind the wildly popular Baby Loves Science series comes a spinoff perfect for little scientists discovering their own amazing powers: Baby Loves the Five Senses!

Accurate enough to satisfy an expert, yet simple enough for baby, this book explores the world of smell. A trip to the farmers' market inspires an exploration of the olfactory sense in this engaging, toddler-friendly account.

What is a smell? How does Baby's nose work? What are some of the many scents that Baby can sniff? Learn these and more with Irene Chan's bright, kid-friendly illustrations and Ruth Spiro's age-appropriate, scientifically-vetted text.
