I Live in a Tree Trunk
The irresistible companion to I Was Born a Baby—a hilarious read-aloud with catchy rhymes and bold, silly art about animals and the places they call home!
I live in a tree trunk. I live in a barn. I live in a shoebox. I’m down on the farm...
Soon all the other animals can’t help but share what their homes are called, too. Readers will learn about porcupines, salamanders, groundhogs, and more. But when the rabbit, platypus, and meerkat realise their homes share the same name, they can’t believe it. "Are you for SURE I had NO clue!" becomes a catchy, energetic refrain readers will love chanting.
The text invites readers to predict what the animal is by using context clues and checking the endpapers to see if they guessed right.
The strong rhythm and unexpected discoveries of the animal kingdom, plus deadpan humour and wonderfully expressive art will spark a conversation about habitats and nature and leave readers wanting to read it aloud again and again.

About the Author
Meg Fleming is the award-winning author of several picture books celebrating the natural world through rhyme and repetition, including Here Comes Ocean and Sometimes Rain, a 2019 ALA Top 10 Picture Book for Sustainability. Meg is a master of connecting to younger audiences through her wit, sense of fun and mischief, as well as her remarkable optimism and the special sense of rhythm she cultivated as a vocal coach. She was inspired to write I Was Born a Baby when her youngest child had an epiphany: "I was BORN a baby?" Ben had met babies but hadn't known he'd been one. She lives outside of San Francisco with her husband and three kids.
