From the playful fox cub to the tiny fluffy duckling, from the prettiest baby seal to a wobbly thoroughbred foal, everyone's favourite mini creatures are charmingly brought to life by this award-winning artist - you'll squeal with delight at their cuteness!

Each animal portrait is accompanied by informative and entertaining text that will teach you more about how these little creatures will make their way in the world.
