An adorable guessing-game introduction to baby animals and their footprints!

Who walks in the snow? A penguin chick! Who crawls to the ocean? A sea turtle hatchling! In this adorable introduction to animal tracks and habitats, young readers must guess which baby animals have made which footprints. Thirteen different species appear, including--in a final surprise--our own.
Published simultaneously in hardcover.
"Here is a science book with the 'aw' factor of a playful read-aloud for young children. . . . Incorporating a guessing game, a tracking guide, babies in motion, and introduction to habitats, this spare book is deceptively busy." —Booklist

"Questions set against a background of animals’ footprints invite young audiences to guess which baby animal left their print, followed by the answer page illustrating each youngling . . . A brief but informative introduction to animal behavior for the littlest naturalists and a fun guessing game for preschoolers."—School Library Journal

"The simple, patterned presentation neatly imparts multifaceted information, and a handy, succinct addendum will encourage second and third views. Effortlessly enlightening."—Kirkus Reviews
LOREEN LEEDY is the author of 2 X 2=Boo, Seeing Symmetry, Amazing Plant Powers: How Plants Fly, Fight, Hide, Hunt and Change the World, and many more. Her books have been ALA Notable books, Kirkus Reviews Best Books, and Booklist Editors Choices.
