A newly hatched sea turtle, a baby giraffe anxious for independence and a little elephant who wants more than anything to help his mother … each of the characters struggles with issues that young children can relate to.
Review, Canadian Children’s Book News
The images are perfect for newborns …. the set of these board books tied together with pretty ribbon would make a darling baby shower gift …. a must have for the modern parent.
Word of Mouse Book Reviews
Since [in both Bitsy and Rokko] Opal never attaches a gender to the little critters, the books are equally accessible to both girls and boys. Both books certainly deserve a place in home and library collections.
Review, CM Magazine
