Review

This is a beautiful story that celebrates a mother's love for her baby, in this case the mother and baby are koalas. In simple rhyming text, Mom tries to convey to her baby which parts of the baby she loves the best. Of course, that question is not easily answered as Mom loves everything about her baby; her kisses, her cuddles, her antics, her hugs and laughs and her precious little face. The illustrations complement the text perfectly employing lots of shiny colors along with yellows, greens, and blues. Consider this one for your shelves. It's just precious.

Overall Book Score: very good
