Reviews" Zooborns pulls off the difficult task of being cute and interesting for people of all ages while also being informative." --BlogCritics.com, "If a picture is worth 1,000 words, then these stunning photographs starring precious animal tykes may be priceless. The range of real-life infants featured is extraordinary in its breadth, covering such unusual zoo or aquarium residents as the crowned sifaka and the tawny frogmouth. The captivating, clear photographs pose every cub, kit and so on at its most adorable."-- Kirkus Reviews, "These are hands down the cutest books ever to grace my shelf. For those who need a surge of oxytocin, it's impossible to pick up either one without smiling ear to ear." --DiscoverMagazine.com, "Page after page of baby tigers, otters, penguins, and apes so overbearingly adorable it hurts just to look at them." --DailyCandy.com, " The engaging up-close-and-personal photos will draw children into the book, and the text and extras provide good factual material to satisfy curious readers."-- School Library Journal, "These are hands down the cutest books ever to grace my shelf. For those who need a surge of oxytocin, it's impossible to pick up either one without smiling ear to ear."--DiscoverMagazine.com, "Zoobornspulls off the difficult task of being cute and interesting for people of all ages while also being informative."--BlogCritics.com, "The book's 150 pages is barely enough to contain the sickening cuteness of dozens of snuggly young animals. . . a book rich in both content and visually stunning photography." --DeepSeaNews.com
