A fun story about what all sorts of baby animals will do when they grow up, from little lions who will roar loudly to little elephants who will someday be able to spray with everything with their trunks.
Children will enjoy lifting the flaps to see what the baby animals will do when they're older. It may also lead to a fun guessing game to try to see what the grown up animals will do. This is a great example of a picture book for those younger ones who are just leaving the board books.

So this is a great book to read to a child that is always trying to grow up too fast or feels like they are too small.
Adorable illustrations; perfect for toddlers and pre-school children.
Summary: Little animals become big animals.
