This board book is enticing and extremely attractive.  Adult readers and their youngsters will be equally delighted by the adorable illustrations of 16 species of wild animals.  While the text is sparse the appeal is heightened by the phrases of love and caring.  Animals are portrayed in realistic colors and the anatomy has not been altered; these animals looks much as they do in the wild.

Add this edition to public libraries where board books are collected.   Born in the Wild is an excellent choice as a gift for baby showers and first birthdays. Delightful addition to any home toddler collection.
