Come meet babies across the animal kingdom and learn their adorable names in this "joyful, rollicking" (School Library Journal, starred review) rhyming picture book celebration of how--no matter what species--everyone grows!

Puffins have pufflings, porcupines have porcupettes, and echidnas have...puggles?! All these babies start out little, and then, just like humans, they grow and grow and grow.
