Baby Day!

Nancy Elizabeth Wallace. Houghton Mifflin Harcourt (HMH), $9.95 (32pp) ISBN 978-0-618-27576-2

In Baby Day!, Nancy Elizabeth Wallace uses her signature collage illustrations on sturdy corrugated pages to portray a baby bunny's familiar routine. Beginning with ""Baby day! Up! Up! Up!"" when the mother takes her baby from the crib (a framed picture of ""PJ's"" appears, opposite) on to a stroll outside, featuring a close-up of leaf, grass and flower, and later to naptime with ""blankie"" and ""bear,"" this handsize square volume covers every aspect of a toddler's day.
