  Very cute illustrations, but this goes without saying actually, since this book is about baby animals and their beginning endeavors at life. I found the script to also be offered in a gently educational, almost subtle manner and feel this work for young children will be of great interest to them.
  
  There's a range of animals mentioned such as: foals, elephants, seals, honey bears, orangutangs and many more, which will keep any child enthused. It would make for a pleasant reading session and time to connect with one's child, I'd say.
  
  At book's end, are further short blurbs about the various animals named within the previous pages. These, perhaps are extras for slightly older children who can read and are keen on learning more about these babies in nature.
  
  Together, author and illustrator have created a beautiful and enticing children's non-fiction book - at least in my humble opinion, they did.
  
  I give this book a 5-Star rating.

  Baby Animals Trying is a cute book about baby animals reaching certain milestones like standing, walking, climbing, etc. The illustrations are precious and the rhyming pages are sweet. It’s helpful that there is an educational section in the back with more information about the animals included in the book. Since this book is geared towards young children and you flip pages relatively quickly to hold their attention, it may be helpful to eliminate the non rhyming pages as they really just cut into the overall flow of the book. The animals included and relating to human children are cute and my kids found the information interesting in the back of the book. I think Baby Animals Growing may be a more appropriate title because it feels like you are reading an incomplete statement when you start the book.
  Thank you NetGalley and SourceBooks for the opportunity to read this book to my children.

  We adore this heartwarming little book about trying new things. We get to learn about animal babies as they try new things, like walking, eating and climbing. A heartwarming message that “I’ll be beside you wherever you go” adds to the comfort this story brings. It makes a perfect bedtime snuggle story. The illustrations are bold and colorful and show us some cute animals learning. We love this book. It makes the perfect gift for little ones. Easy to follow, simple text with perfect pictures to show us the adorable story. Your family will love this one.
