The Baby That Roared

32 pp. | Candlewick/Nosy Crow | July, 2012 | Trade ISBN 978-0-7636-5903-5 $15.99
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Nadia Shireen. When loving, childless Mr. and Mrs. Deer find a "dear little baby," they try to care for it, but the baby just roars and roars. They call in friends to help, but when left alone with the baby, each disappears--"How very peculiar!" Quirky, expressive mixed-media illustrations reveal that the baby is really a little monster from the start of this silly story.
