My First Day

The first day of life presents unique challenges and adaptations for various animal species, contrasting the limited activity of human newborns. This beautifully illustrated book showcases twenty-two animals, from emperor penguins to Siberian tigers, highlighting their remarkable abilities to navigate their initial hours, whether aided by parents or not. The Caldecott Honor-winning duo, Steve Jenkins and Robin Page, combine vibrant cut-paper illustrations with concise text, while an illustrated guide at the end offers further insights into each featured species.
