Welcome to the world of baby animals, Australian style! A variety of baby animals that live in Australia are shown along with the names they are called Down Under. Did you know some babies there are called joeys? You may have heard that name for baby kangaroos, but it is also what baby wombats and koalas are called—to name a few. Depending on the animal, babies go by a variety of names: flying fox babies are called pups, while baby sea dragons are called fry. Human babies and children adore baby animals, and this book will give them lots to like. Little ones will enjoy the adorable, brightly colored illustrations, which are done by the author. The fact that these babies that are being covered with motherly love—and in some cases, fatherly love—make them even more charming! Over-sized and hard-backed, this five-star, picture book will be enjoyed by children through toddler age. Candlewick Press has provided Tickmenot with a complimentary copy of, Australian Baby Animals, for the purpose of review. no reviews | add a review
Notable Lists
A classic showcase of Australian baby animals and their families for very young children from a consummate author/illustrator. With one animal baby featured on each double page spread, this colourful introduction to iconic Australian creatures groups them according to their baby names: joeys, hatchlings, fry, chicks, puggles, pups and platypups. The animals cover the full gamut of family groups: from marsupials to monotremes and reptiles to birds. Each baby animal is described by one line of text (in bold type). And there's a special additional fact for extra interest. No library descriptions found. |
