Gyo Fujikawa is one of the truly great preschool book artists. Her soft style of painting is pleasing and always interesting—you can visit the illustrations again and again without getting bored. As in all her books, Fujikawa's baby landscapes portray many different ethnic groups.

Just looking at this large format board book, I was sure that it was a reprint. The pictures of kids and animals remind me of those that I saw in books many years agogirls with dresses, lots of tow-headed kids, and very little ethnic variety. The book helps young ones learn the names of baby animals and the ones depicted make you want to reach out and pet them all. Sweet puppies, soft kittens, fluffy chick and ducklings, wooly lambs and hungry birds, pink plump piglets and more. Gyo does a good job presenting a variety of animals, their names, and the sounds that they make. A sweet bit of nostalgia. Reviewer: Marilyn Courtot

08/22/2009: This title was the absolutely favorite of my first child, who is 42 now! His sisters loved it too. I was so happy to find it for my grandchildren! I love Gyo Fujikawa's illustrations in any book but this one is the most important to our family!
