Whose Baby Am I?

By John Butler and Butler John

Book Overview

Renowned wildlife artist John Butler has created a wonderful way to introduce very young children to animals. Each right-hand page-on sturdy card stock-features a picture of an adorable baby animal with the question "Whose baby am I?" Turn the page and see the baby together with its parent. The guessing game format and the mix-and-match game at the end of the book encourage interaction and make this an ideal book to share with little ones.

Customer Reviews

Beautifully illustrated!

The sweet illustrations are really the selling point of this board book. There isn't much text, which is fine, but the animals aren't really familiar (a zebra, an owl, a panda bear, a seal, etc.) so my 11 month old daughter looks at me a little puzzled - but she does love the big eyed animals. We read it before bedtime, and she loves to "kiss" the animals. It is the only book that she seems to want to kiss. It is our new favorite bedtime book.

Baby's favorite book!

This is my 11-month-old daughter's favorite book. She goes into her room to "check on" it through out the day. She digs it out of a pile of books to read, even when we're in the middle of a different book. She absolutely adores it. I would recommend this board book for all babies, and I am thrilled to see there's a hardcover with more babies for when she stops chewing on all her books.

ADORABLE!

Just bought this book for my baby as a souvenir from the zoo; it's much cuter, more useful, and more educational than the typical stuffed panda! This book is absolutely darling, the second I saw it I had to have it. The illustrations are top notch, the selection of animals, flawless! The book shows first a variety of the sweetest baby animals, asking, "Whose baby am I?" Then providing an equally cute picture of each baby's mama. At the end I like to ask my baby, "whose baby are you?" We love this book!!

Simple and adorable for beginners

Kids ages 2-5 will find Whose Baby Am I? a very simple book which pairs a top wildlife illustrator's cute and realistic drawings with simple questions and answers about baby animals. Simple and adorable for beginners.

Great book

This book is beautifully drawn. The picture make you want to hug all the animal. It helps teach kids what baby animals look like and who their mother is. At the end it also has a page that tells them what the little babies are called.
