Bookroo's summary

In a topsy-turvy world where the sky turns brown and the earth blue, baby animals awaken to find themselves with mismatched mothers. As they navigate this peculiar new reality, will they find their way back to their true families, or discover unexpected bonds in this whimsical chaos? Dive into a world where the ordinary is turned on its head, and every turn of the page brings a delightful surprise. What happens when the familiar becomes strange, and the strange becomes familiar?

From the publisher

Once when the world tipped upside down,

The earth went blue and the sky went brown.

All the baby animals tumbled out of bed

And ended up with very funny mums instead…
