Description
Papa Fox is looking for Baby Fox, who is just out of his sight ... but not ours!
In this clever introduction to prepositions, Papa is looking for his baby. Is Baby up in the tree? Is Baby under the log? Is Baby around the corner? Where could Baby be?
Readers will delight in spotting the little fox on every page as Papa wanders the forest, encountering other animals all along the way, but never quite able to spot his own baby. Anne Hunter's delicate and lovely illustrations with their limited palette highlight the humour of this adorable hide-and-seek tale.

Reviews / Votes
Where's Baby? is a delicate and sweet little story, with all the makings of a classic picturebook. Anne Hunter, a master of her craft, is the illustrator, author and lettering designer. She created the lovely handlettering for the text that sits so well with her refined illustrations. Her precise and detailed pictures are gently complemented by a very limited colour scheme that goes a long way to highlighting the plot. * Inis Magazine * The text is spare and simple and cleverly kept to direct speech, hand-lettered in speech bubbles. This is a lovely book to share with young readers who will delight in pointing out Baby Fox, and the final call of 'can we do that again?' invites repeated readings of this highly entertaining and joyful story. * The School Librarian *More details
