This chunky, interactive board book provides a first learning experience and a first taste of nature. Each spread follows a little animal as they make their way home – rabbit, fox, bear, owl; and on each there are things to point out and name, including other animals, and some of the other things you’ll see out and about, from moths to flowers and trees.
Best of all, you can help the little creature make their way deep into their burrow or home by moving the sliding counter across the page.
The interactive element will be endlessly fascinating for the very young, but there’s so much else to reward them too and Carolina Buzio’s illustrations are very appealing.
Help the baby animals find their way home in this fun new sliding counter series!
Meet rabbit, fox, bear and owl - four adorable baby animals who are lost in the woods! With easy-to-use moving parts and four unique tracks to develop hand-eye coordination and concentration, babies and toddlers will enjoy taking the baby animals home in this robust, satisfying board book.

Carolina Búzio is an illustrator and occasional animator drawn to quirky characters and exciting colour combinations. She was born in the lovely seaside town of Porto, Portugal, and is currently living in artsy Berlin, Germany, with her partner (who is unfortunately allergic to cats or else she'd finally be the crazy cat lady her child-self always assumed she would one day be). With a great memory for faces (but terrible for names, she apologises in advance) and objects with a personality, it makes sense that she illustrates children's books for a living. The toughest but also her favourite part of the illustration process is the colouring stage: whenever she puts two odd colours together that go unexpectedly well, she gets butterflies in her stomach.
