A mix-up between the nursery and the zoo

A trip to the hospital takes an unexpected detour when Kristen’s dad gets lost and winds up at the zoo. The baby brought home is, in Kristen’s view, an alligator—not her brother. The search for the right baby brings home a baby seal and a baby gorilla before Kristen takes matters into her own hands. This board-book edition adapts Robert Munsch’s humorous mix-up for toddlers, with the confusion between animal babies and a human baby driving the story.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Toddlers and young children, including the listed 0–3 age group
  • Families seeking a humorous read-aloud about a new sibling and an unexpected mix-up

Book overview

Kristen's parents bring the new baby home from the hospital. But this baby can't be Kristen's little brother!

One night Kristen's mom goes off to the hospital to have a baby. But Dad gets lost on the way, and ends up at the zoo instead. When they get home, Kristen takes one look at the baby and says, "That's not my baby brother -- it's an alligator!" So the parents go off to the zoo to find their real baby. They bring back a baby seal, a baby gorilla -- but no people baby. So Kristen has to go off to the zoo and fix things herself...

This board book edition of a classic Munsch story has been revised and designed for the toddler set!
