Four charming information books for young children with beautiful colour photographs all the way through, each telling the story about an animal character in its babyhood. The pictures are delightful, showing the baby creatures from the first hours of their lives and right through to being grown up. These would make a welcome addition to the library of any family, being informative and entertaining. For only £1.99 each these are bargains and to be highly recommended.

The text is clear and would be simple enough for a new reader to tackle and the words give accurate information in warm-hearted fashion.
