Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
What was I like when I was born? The perennial question receives a fanciful response in a tale that takes an interspecies tour of mothers and babies.
Holly loves to hear the story of the night when she was born--but first she needs to ask a lot of questions. Did her mother hatch her out of an egg? Did she carry Holly in her pocket? Maybe she fed her baby mice for dinner? As Holly and her dad rule out one imaginary scenario after another, little listeners will be eager to join in, while learning some interesting details along the way. And they'll be just as comforted as Holly to hear one final, satisfying tale of a happy and loving human mother on the day her baby was born.
With the promise of hearing about the day she was born, Holly and her father first imagine the birth of several different animals including chickens, kittens, and kangaroos.
Age 3-up.
