Whether two-legged or four-legged, babies have a lot in common. They run, hide, jump, tumble, tug, cry, munch, and snooze, as babies of all kinds do on the pages of this sweet book. On a bright afternoon, Mummy, Daddy, and Baby have a picnic. Nearby, animal families go about their own, very similar activities. Baby gets a piggyback ride...and so do the baby possums. Baby cries out for lunch...and so does a baby bird. Baby splashes in a stream...and so does a baby otter. Sun-kissed illustrations and a lyrical story, filled with animals to name and sounds to repeat, capture a perfect day out and celebrate the many things babies can do. Nursery-5
