This is a National Geographic book featuring all sorts of baby animals. Each two page spread features a different animal and is awash with beautiful images (as one would expect from Nat Geo). The animals span all types from mammals to fish to insects to birds and more. There are little factoids in bubbles around the edges of more dense text, but the text isn’t overly dense and won’t overwhelm young readers. The book is, however, over a hundred pages long. It is hard to pinpoint the audience since the title suggests little kids, but the length and vocabulary of the book suggests older kids. This book will be popular in most libraries simply due to the format — the eye catching images and promise of baby animals. Recommended for animal enthusiasts ages 7 and up.
