The Young Ones

An adorable collection of the sweetest baby animals you've ever seen, brought to life by Hannah Dale, creator of Wrendale Designs. This gorgeous celebration of new life features over 50 British baby animals, painted by award-winning artists Hannah Dale. 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 in the author's quirky inimitable style. Each animal portrait is accompanied by informative and entertaining text on how these little creatures will make their way in the world. Did you know that kingfisher chicks have to leave the nest after four days, while young dolphins remain in their mother's care for three to six years? A new and larger edition of a bestselling book, the gorgeous baby animal paintings get even more space to shine. It's an irresistible book for nature enthusiasts who will love the cuteness within.
