From School Library Journal:

PreSchool-Grade 1–On each spread of this warm lapsit book, a baby animal asks its mother to carry me please. Each mother accommodates by transporting the youngster in that animals special way: lemur under its belly, kangaroo in a pouch, tiger in its mouth, crocodile in teeth, penguin on its feet, and so on until the cozy ending when a human child is carried in the mothers arms. The art features Cabreras trademark breezy, blocky, and bold animals in bright and energetic colors that focus childrens eye and attention. This will be useful as a read-alone for beginning readers as well as a welcome addition to simple science collections for the toddler set.–Marge Loch-Wouters, Menashas Public Library, WI
