Hello, Little Egg! An Oona and Baba Adventure. PICTURE BOOK.
Penguin Young Reader’s Licenses (Penguin Random House), 2016. $9.99.
In Puffin
Rock, where the characters live, we find puffins Oona and Baba, along with
Mossy the mouse, going to play catch. Instead they find what they think is a
blue rock. They quickly realize the “rock” is an egg, and spend some time
trying to figure out what kind of bird it belongs to. The egg hatches with a baby
guillemot inside. The friends then try to figure out a way to get the baby bird
back to his mama and papa.
A sweet although somewhat simple story of friends
helping out an egg and then a baby bird in need, this book’s illustrations are
great. This is An Oona and Baba Adventure book based on the TV series Puffin
Rock, so fans of the show will already like the characters and stories,
otherwise I’m not sure this tale would stand out on its own.
PRE-K-OPTIONAL.
