In the second collaboration between Kate Endle and Caspar Babypants, a young girl's fascination with nature is captured in colorful spreads and a gentle sing-song text. The artist's signature cut-paper collages are full of detail, and the scenes are based on one of Kate Endle's enduring memories from her own childhood in which she wished she could commune with the birds, frogs, rabbits, and butterflies that she encountered. Readers are invited to share that sense of wonder and love for the animal world in this captivating book. Also included are free MP3 downloads of the song based on the text of My Woodland Wish performed by Caspar Babypants.

My Woodland Wish is a cute story of a little girl’s adventures through the woodland. She discovered animals along the way that are so well illustrated by Kate Endle. I love the innocence of this book. Simply Modern Mom
With Kate [Endle] illustrating and Caspar [Babypants] writing, these two new books [Bunny Rabbit in the Sunlight and My Woodland Wish] are perfectly balanced and delightfully beautiful... Both are adorable and both follow a similar theme: pictures of cutey pie wild animals and rhymes about what those animals do (and how much we want to play with them). Boston Children's Music
...both books [Bunny Rabbit in the Sunlight and My Woodland Wish] capture the peaceful, gentle spirit of Caspar Babypants’ music, and feature some of Endle’s loveliest work. Dadnabbit
Both books [Bunny Rabbit in the Sunlight and My Woodland Wish] are lovely to read and have a great rhythm to them. If there's a child in your life that loves animals and the outdoors, or if you're a city mom whose kids don't get enough exposure to nature (like me!), these books would be a great addition to your home library. Growing My Kids Reviews
It rhymes and flows, keeping even the youngest listener interested. And then add to it the beautiful collage illustrations and you have a book to treasure for years to come! Momma Drama
Coming from Caspar Babypants, of course there is a free MP3 tune to go along with each book [Bunny Rabbit in the Sunlight and My Woodland Wish] The songs just happen to be the words/lyrics in the books, so feel free to read or sing along. It is extremely engaging and your kids will be spellbound. In the Know Mom
