There's a Baby in There! - Hardcover
There’s a baby in there. At least that’s what Mama and Papa tell me. I don’t think so. I was in there once, four years ago. I didn’t see anybody else.
A little boy chimp wonders what it would be like to have a baby brother or even . . . a sister? But no matter what anyone says, he still doesn’t believe there’s a baby in his mother’s belly—until one day, there’s proof! This delightful text by Dandi Daley Mackall is illustrated with rich humor and detail by Carlynn Whitt in acrylic, colored pencil, and wax crayon on watercolor paper.

About the Author:
Dandi won her first writing contest as a 10-year-old tomboy. Her 50 words on "Why I Want to Be Batboy for the Kansas City A's" won first place, but the team wouldn't let a girl be batboy. It was her first taste of rejection. Since then, Dandi Daley Mackall is an award-winning author of over 400 books for children of all ages, with sales of 4 million copies in 22 countries. THE SILENCE OF MURDER is the winner of the Edgar Award for Best Young Adult Mystery 2012. Dandi received the 2009 Helen Keating Ott Award for distinguished contribution toward promoting high moral and ethical values in children and young adult literature. Dandi is a national speaker, keynoting at conferences and Young Author events, and has made dozens of appearances on TV, including ABC, NBC, and CBS.
From Publishers Weekly:
A young chimp is doubtful that there's a baby inside his pregnant mother's stomach, and with good reason: "I was in there once, four years ago. I didn't see anybody else." When the boy's father assures him that he'll be getting a new playmate, the chimp envisions playing ball with his baby brother. But his grandmother's prediction that the baby is a girl elicits a far less palatable image: that of the scowling chimp having a tea party with his sister. The chimp's ingenuous voice and skepticism give Mackall's (Listen to the Silent Night) story a wily edge that many books about soon-to-be siblings lack. Also refreshing is newcomer Whitt's bustling mixed-media art. Bold colors, textures, and patterns intermingle in jungle scenes that parrot the narrator's change of mood as he accepts the prospect of a new baby, pitches in to help prepare for her arrival, and welcomes her into his world. A playfully affirming book for reluctant prospective siblings. --Publisher's Weekly October 22, 2012
