Chubby puppies, furry kittens, fuzzy chicks, downy ducklings: Gyo Fujikawa’s lovable baby animals will captivate children. They’re big (elephants) and small (mice), plump (piglets), and playful (lambs). With each picture, kids learn a little bit about the animal–the sound it makes, how soft it might feel, and what it can do. Plus, they’ll discover something else very important: that very young creatures have to be petted, snuggled, and hugged very gently…just like the children themselves.
I know this is a classic and how impressive Gyo Fujikawa's career was, but not having grown up with it, reading it, it just felt dated and like any other baby animals book, except without any clever text or read-aloud perks.
