Step by Step: All by Myself

Bruce McMillan. Lothrop, Lee and Shepard Books, $13.95 (26pp) ISBN 978-0-688-07233-9

A tiny infant sleeps, rolls over, stands up, walks and then, at 14 months, runs, in this photographic portrait of a child's first moves. McMillan traces the development of his subject, who grows busier and more aware in each shot, and captions the photos with ""sleeping,'' ``waking,'' ``kicking,'' etc. This is an engaging, coherent concept that will have other babies and toddlers pointing, looking and, probably, smiling. Ages 3-7. (August)
