How's that infantile ?

As far as I can see all the people are more or less drawn anatomically correct and IMO it looks good.

Have you ever seen something drawn by an infant ?

I would imagine the OP you're responding to was referring to the "drawings" of text, which look straight out of one of those kindergarten "write this letter 100 times to practice it" books.

The people/illustrations are pretty good, and wouldn't be out of the ordinary accompanying regular text.

This would make a lot more sense if this was at all what kindergarten handwriting looks like.

The criticism is not because it is "by" an infant, but "for" an infant.

I’m skeptical that that is actually the intended audience, though

Obviously not. And it's not a fair criticism either way, but that is the criticism. Nobody is accusing the author of drawing like an infant.

Infantile might be a bit of an exaggeration. Juvenile, perhaps?

Well I'd say neither of those things. The gulf between a child and an adult is really not that wide when it comes to matters such as taste and reasoning ability.

Really, so there’s not much difference between infants and adults when it comes to taste and reasoning ability. That’s an unusual assertion.
