Baby Tales

Foal, cub, piglet, chick, polliwog, pup or kitten. Every creature begins life the same way – as a baby. Irresistible. But growing up is different for each of us. Turtle hatchlings make their way in the world by pure instinct. Their mothers are long gone by the time they emerge from their shells, and they are completely on their own. Other babies could not survive alone. They form strong bonds with their mothers, relying on them for years of devoted care and all-important training. Under the watchful eye of a mother, there is always a lot to learn, always a lot to try, always a lot to practice until you get it right. And every new day promises a series of fresh adventures full of endless possibilities. These are the stories of babies across the animal kingdom, and their daunting journeys into a grown-up world.
