by Deborah Guarino ‧ RELEASE DATE: Sept. 1, 1989
In cleverly rhymed verse, a baby llama asks other baby animals the title question, each time learning--with a page-turn timed to give the young listener a chance to anticipate it--the mother's name: bat, cow, seal, etc. Kellogg pictures a pristine world inhabited by endearing animals, tree to life except for the cygnet's duck-like neck. Guarino's first will be especially attractive to toddlers, wire know that finding your own mother is true drama.
