In the delightful tale Where's Baby?, Papa Fox searches for his little one while introducing children to prepositions in a fun way.

In Where's Baby?, Papa Fox embarks on a playful adventure in search of his elusive Baby Fox. The narrative cleverly introduces young readers to the concept of prepositions through Papa's journey as he wonders if Baby is up in the tree, under the log, or around the corner. Each page invites children to engage with the story by helping Papa locate his little one, making it both an entertaining and educational experience.

As Papa Fox explores the forest, he encounters various other animals, each adding to the charm of the tale. The delightful illustrations by Anne Hunter enhance the storytelling, showcasing a limited color palette that emphasizes the humor and warmth of this hide-and-seek adventure. Children will enjoy the challenge of spotting Baby Fox, who is cleverly hidden in each scene, fostering both observation skills and a sense of connection with the characters.

Where's Baby? is not just a story of a father's search; it is a delightful exploration of the world around us. The gentle humor and engaging illustrations make it a perfect read-aloud book for parents and children alike, encouraging interaction and discussion about where Baby might be hiding next. This charming tale is sure to become a favorite in any child's library.

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 *
