Review:

“Though the text is spare, a few facts are sprinkled in. Each animal briefly offers an upbeat description of itself before finding a mate and producing offspring. Softly rounded pastel illustrations make lovely use of texture. A bit of sly humor sneaks in — with a page turn, the die-cut holes of the flowers in one image transform into the rabbit’s waste; leaping through a field, the bunny gleefully proclaims, 'My droppings are round.' Enticing rudimentary introductions to nonfiction texts.” – Mahnaz Dar for School Library Journal
