Who are You, Baby Kangaroo?

Product #:	184148217X
Description:	In this visually appealing rhymed quest, a little puppy asks a collection of animals the name of the baby kangaroo. The charm of the book comes from the colorful hand-sewn Clare Beaton collages. As in her earlier books (Mother Goose Remembers, Playtime Rhymes for Little People), Beaton's felt and fabric creatures surrounded by sparkly buttons and beads give the book a delightful, multi-dimensional tactile quality—like the joyous chaos of a patchwork quilt. The stitches are just right for each animal. Curlicues on the sheep resemble tightly curled wool, and the stitches on the baby penguins look like soft fuzz. The beady-eyed expressions on animal faces are irresistible, and children will have fun finding fabric repeats on different pages. The rhymes are a bit bumpy, but the illustrations carry the book, and the peek-a-boo-like theme will appeal to young children. Interesting, kid-friendly facts are included in the animal profiles at the end of the book. A satisfying, cozy read. --Quinby Frank
