Sad Animal Babies 〰️

"Sad Animal Babies" book cover by Brooke Barker featuring illustrated animals and text about newborn mammals' eyes.

No one ever said it was easy being young, and it’s especially true if you’re a little creature out in the jungles, forests, deserts, and oceans of the big, bad world.

Every animal gets a hand-drawn image, an informative caption, and a wry quotation, and in the back, there’s an appendix with further zoological details and humor to flesh out each entry.
