Illustrated by
Miguel Ordóñez.
The team behind Your Baby's First Word Will Be Dada also knows that babies have a one-track mind that revolves around their mama. The animal mamas in Ordóñez's kid-friendly, minimalist illustrations try to teach their babies new words (shown via speech bubbles), but instead of repeating, the babies (almost) always reply "Mama!" The one-note joke is mainly aimed at late-night television host Fallon's adult fans.
