School Library Journal Starred Review (Fri Mar 01 00:00:00 CST 2024)

PreS-K— Larsen's ( How to Put Your Parents to Bed , etc.) refrain, "For babies are babies, but everyone knows/ that everyone, everyone, everyone GROWS," is the main theme, but along the way, readers learn that, "Wombats have joeys./ Lambs come from sheep. /Puffins have pufflings, and sandpipers, peeps." Joyful, rollicking rhymes without a single instance of awkward phrasing make this a glorious read-aloud, and there's plenty for the adult reader too: Echidnas have puggles! Hawks have eyas! Laberis's animation-style illustrations are expressive and full of whimsy and movement with animals laughing, frollicking, wobbling, and growing , of course. They are realistic enough to show what each baby animal looks like and give an especially informative view showing animals at many different developmental stages on the refrain pages. Perhaps inevitably, the book ends with human babies who are shown in a variety of skin tones and hair colors, with one particularly charming illustration of a family of three, with brown skin and black hair, and a just-as-winsome horse family. VERDICT Recommended for curious preschoolers and even early elementary children, for any collection that answers questions about what makes up families.— Hillary Perelyubskiy

Come meet babies across the animal kingdom and learn their adorable names in this “joyful, rollicking” (School Library Journal, starred review) rhyming picture book celebration of how—no matter what species—everyone grows!

Puffins have pufflings, porcupines have porcupettes, and echidnas have…puggles?! All these babies start out little, and then, just like humans, they grow and grow and grow. Featuring dozens of different animals, all adorably illustrated by Stephanie Laberis, this book is a vibrant celebration of little ones, growing, and love.
