“Root and Walker introduce readers to a whole springtime full of babies taking that first thrilling step toward independence.” —The Horn Book

Come join these baby animals as they fly, swim, wiggle, and slide, all with the help of their mamas. But what these babies like best, of course, is spotting other baby animals! With Phyllis Root’s buoyant rhythms and David Walker’s sunny illustrations, here is a guaranteed favorite for babies and toddlers, who will love shouting out the rhyming word sure to come on the next spread.
The cleverness of the design combines with the animals' toddler-friendly round shapes and smiles to provide a developmentally appropriate visual accompaniment to the well-paced text.
—Kirkus Reviews

Engaging verses and winsome illustrations encourage little ones taking those first steps into the world.
—Washington Parent

The soft, warmly hued, acrylic art cheerfully invites young listeners to participate. Ready made for chubby hands to reach and point - and sure to bring requests of “Read it again!"
—Booklist
