This is the latest addition to the Cat In the Hat Learning Library. We have all of this set and I highly recommend each of them, except this one.

I am a professional naturalist for the National Park Service and my five year old son just eats this stuff up. Unfortunately, after the Cat In The Hat spends the whole book rhyming delightfully about baby animals, he then suggests that you can turn your backyard into A "Wild baby daycare center" ("Your mother will not mind at all if you do.")

It is dangerous to children to suggest they handle wild baby animals, and usually a mistaken kindness (kids can and will find all kinds of orphans who usually aren't), and it is illegal in almost all states to keep native wildlife without a permit.
Bonnie Worth's facts are all fine, and her rhymes are devine, but she needs to check on her wildlife ethics. Perhaps they can change this in the next edition.
