About The Author
Jimmy Fallon lives in New York City with his wife, Nancy, and their two daughters, Winnie and Franny. He received glowing reviews for Your Baby's First Word Will Be DADA, but when he looked around his house and realized everything was MAMA, he went back to work. If you have a three-year-old, they'll love the pictures. And if you have a one-year-old, they'll love how it tastes.
Miguel Ordóñez illustrated Your Baby's First Word Will Be Dada, which was honored by the Society of Illustrators. He lives in Madrid with his wife Lucia and their two daughters, Carla and Vera. Carla and Vera's first word was Mama.

Not a fan.
I feel like it is blatant disrespect that this book purposely has a page that doesn’t follow the rest, while the dada book consistently has every animal saying “dada”. We returned both bc of this.

Another book by a rich person
Another book that people buy just because it's Jimmy Fallon it's so stupid when there's actual people making real stories in the world especially on Amazon and people give their money to someone that doesn't give a crap about them and is Rich already good job people I'm being sarcastic

Very cute simple book
Very simple words and picture. It’s not a storytelling book but it’s great for repetition to learn new words. You can also add in words like colors, names of animals, etc.

Not great.
It was a very bland and basic book. I understand it’s for babies but there wasn’t enough words to expand a baby’s vocabulary.
