I Love Baby Animals - Aug 18th – 21st
Billy and Monster’s New Neighbor Has a Secret - Aug 25th – 29th
until Friday. It’s my first children’s book and was written to help young
children who are starting to learn how to read. It has fun rhymes and
can open up that discussion of what they want to be when they grow up.
It’s one of the kids that I find the most fun reading and sharing with kids when I go into schools to do readings. It’s a simple book with fun illustrations and real life photos of adult and baby animals.
It introduces children to the names of baby animals and also includes a fun fact about them. For instance, do you know what a baby Illama is called? If you don’t, then you’ll need to grab your copy next week or right now if you can’t wait till then.
Please help me spread the word by sharing with your family and friends and colleagues.

.“Two books in one! Turn the pages of the little book nestled inside the bigger book to match the baby animals to their parents. La-la-chirp! Buzz-buzz! Swish! Splash! Perfect for learning and playtime fun.”
Openings
“You sing a happy song in our leafy tree. You are my baby little hatchling La-la-chirp!”
“You crawl on the sandy ocean floor. You are my baby, little octopus. Fizz!”
Review
You Are My Baby: Garden includes animals you will find in your garden or backyard. Animals such as the answer to the opening line above top: a Blue bird and a baby blue bird. You will also find a spider, snail, squirrel, and a bumblebee, all with their baby.
You Are My Baby: Ocean includes animals from the sea. In this board book, you will find an octopus (the answer to its opening lines), a seahorse, goldfish, turtle, and a big wale with water spouting out of its blowhole.
Both books have soft colors, many in a pattern, such as the bluebird made of blue with a white dotted body and a yellow beak with smaller white dots.Each book is also two books in one. The adult animals and the baby animals move independently giving any possible combination as you please. If you want the whale to raise the baby turtle, simply put the two together. Both are easy to handle. Made of thick cardboard, the books—all four—will withstand the toughest of little hands that grab, pull, and drop.
I really like the two books together. I like the mix and match of the two without carting out a second book. Kids like to match things up. As a kid, I matched up playing cards. One of these books would have been so much more fun. I could have sat in my grandpa’s lap instead of next to him; I could have practiced on my own. Plus, I know from experience, jelly wipes right off these pages.
Both the Garden, and the Ocean version of You Are My Baby series is adorable and will enchant children and peak their growing curiosity of the world around them. The series is a collection of four including, You Are My Baby: Farm and You Are My Baby: Safari. These You Are My Baby books are one other way of interesting your child in books and reading at an early age. Babies like other babies, making this perfect for the child recognizing his or herself in the world.

Who Would Win?
When I was 5 years old, my father took me to the American Museum of Natural History in New York and I saw elephants close up for the first time. I had never seen anything more beautiful in my whole 5-year life! I even told my grandmother I couldn’t wait until I had elephant skin like hers. (I thought that was the nicest compliment, but she thought it was hilariously funny. Go figure!)
Ever since then, elephants have been my favorite wild animal, so I know my pick for today’s Who Would Win. How about you? Which animal do you think would win the unbearable cuteness contest: baby elephant or baby panda?

A newborn elephant must be CAPABLE of standing and nursing very soon after birth. The dangers that are present for newborn calves in the wild are always present. This image is one from a dummy I am working on and this particular painting was finished today. I can't tell if it will change before the dummy is complete, but I know that the journey in creating the illustrations for this book will be a very satisfying one.

Babies babies babies!
Seems like everyone I know right now are either newly weds or proud parents to be or both. And here I am at 28 (yrs old) barely able to take care of a cat who seems to be developing some sort of a tick as I type sigh
Very exciting times!! Especially for two very awesome people I know who are going to be proud parents of a baby boy due in a couple months! I hope mom and dad enjoy this little welcome gift for baby Jaiden. Can’t wait to meet him.
Want a personalized copy of this print? Market version coming soon at the good ole Etsy Beautique. Stay tuned. Can’t wait? Email me at ninarose(dot)m(at)gmail(dot)com and I’d be happy to set somethin’ up for you . Until then Happy Monday!

Very charming illustration, Ginger. It's nice to see you on IF. The names on IF have changed over the years. So far you're the only name I recognize on IF today. Hope all is well with you.
