There are many Leslie Patricelli books featuring Baby but Big Little is an early work in the series. Leslie is a master in teaching concepts with an unexpected twist of humor. “Ladies are big.

The work is hand-lettered and imagery is emphasized with a heavy black outline. Your baby will love this baby!
