How do baby
animals travel? Some animals carry their babies on their backs, like the giant anteater,
while others grip them in their jaws, like the American alligator. Susan Stockdale’s
book, Carry Me! Animal Babies on the Move teaches kids a little more about the
animal world while captivating them with her vibrant illustrations. On each page, she
shows a different kind of animal, illustrating how that animal carries its young—whether
it carries them in a pouch or in its teeth. At the end of the book, she also features a
page of information about the animals featured—giving their names and where in the world
they’re found. She even offers a bibliography, directing the animal-interested child to
even more resources.
Carry Me! is a simple picture book, containing
only a small amount of text. Pre-school through early-elementary-aged kids will love the
book’s bright, colorful illustrations. And, while they’re hunting for the baby animals
pictured with their parents, children will also learn a little bit about the animals they
see when they visit the zoo.
