Very cute. Great book for all ages to enjoy, really. Could tie in well with lessons in primary grades about each animal and what they eat.

Such a wonderful book to engage children in nature and animals. They will love the beautiful pictures. The text is simple, yet informative!

Great photos to witness tender moments

This book contains high quality images that capture tender moments of the young with their mothers. The light, the sharpness and the close-ups of the photographs are almost perfect, they give the sensation of proximity and of witnessing intimate moments in the life of these pups.
 I recommend this book to promote the development of respect and love of children towards wildlife. When children become familiar with the offspring of these species, they learn from their needs and empathize, recognizing that animals are also sensitive and affectionate beings.

My appreciation to the Publisher and NetGalley for allowing me to review the book

Sometimes, all you need are baby animals. I, for example, am sick with a horrible cold, can't breathe through my nose and hurt everywhere. The cure? Rest, fluids, and pictures of baby animals eating with adorable facts. I love that Suzi Eszterhas includes photographs of animals not traditionally considered "cute" (hey, man. Baby warthogs? So cute!). I still can't breathe properly, but I love looking at baby animals. Great for all ages.

The photographs Suzi Esterhas inclues in her story Baby Animals Eating are beautiful! There are plenty of opportunities to engage young readers beyond the simply written text, such as talking about words like mammals, herbivores, and carnivores. My preschoolers will look forward looking through the pictures and learning what baby animals are eating. Thanks to #NetGalley for the opportunity to preview #BabyAnimalsEating

Baby Animals Eating has to be one of the cutest books I have read lately. It has a bunch of photos of animals eating - like koalas and monkeys! It tells you what they eat and how they eat it - for instance - a sloth at 1 month can digest just 1 leaf! Super adorable quick read.

I received a free e-copy of this book in order to write this review, I was not otherwise compensated.

I have shared a number of Suzi Eszterhas’s marvellous nonfiction books on animals with young children (aged 4 to 8). The response has always been enthusiastic. Eszterhas is a superb wildlife photographer, and she often gets some remarkable shots. Each double-page spread in this book features a young animal with its parent, and sometimes with its siblings, too. We see monkeys, chimpanzees, and warthogs nursing; birds, such as egrets and penguins, feeding their young by regurgitating fish (and frogs, as well—in the case of the egrets); and jackal pups licking their father’s mouth to stimulate his regurgitation of meat. Eszterhas always keeps the mess and more disturbing details out of the sight of her young audience. Her readers are told, for example, that young cheetahs like to eat the gazelle their mother has hunted, but nothing resembling a gazelle appears in the photo of the wild cats feeding. (I had to look closely at the picture Eszterhas did include to make sense of it. In this case, in being too careful not to cause upset, she provided a picture that was not particularly useful or informative.)

Eszterhas has included representative animals from all continents, and in the two to three sentences of text on each page, she manages to communicate some basic details about each animal’s diet—and sometimes the training it will need to be able to catch its own dinner. Most of the baby animals Eszterhas shows in her book will be familiar to young children. However, I was pleased to see some animals that appear less frequently in children’s books of this kind: jackals, egrets, sloths, warthogs, and capybaras.

I’m not sure that this is Eszterhas’s best work, but it is a nice introductory book for young children that could encourage them to make some simple comparisons. I’d recommend it for purchase by school and public libraries. Those interested in Eszterhas’s wonderful photography might enjoy following this link:

Wildlife photographer Suzi Eszterhas' third Baby Animals book, Baby Animals Eating, spotlights more adorable baby animals, and their parents, enjoying foods from eucalyptus leaves to mother's milk. The pictures are vibrant, and the text teaches readers about animal behavior and differing food needs. The previous books, Baby Animals Moving and Baby Animals Playing, come together to form a great introduction to natural science for early learners, and can lead to a good discussion on nutrition. Ask kids what they like to eat; ask for similarities and differences (Bears like to eat clams and fish; do you? Koalas eat eucalyptus leaves; what leaves do you like to eat?) Notice the relationships between parents, siblings, and babies: does your grownup carry you? Do you and your siblings like to eat the same things? Back matter includes more information about Suzi Eszterhas and some behind-the-scenes photos.

This is a great book for storytime, and the crisp pictures allow for early and pre-readers to explore independently. A nice series to add to early nonfiction collections, and a great book to give little ones who love animals. (Go around the room and point out different toys and stuffed animals, and see how many kids can point out from the book.)

Keep Suzi Eszterhas' webpage on your list of reference links. She's got a fantastic amount of information on the page, including her books, newsletter, tours and workshops, and a gallery with some of the most incredible wild animal photos you've ever seen (perfect for animal reports!). There's also a link to Girls Who Click, an organization founded by Eszterhaus, empowering young women to enter the field of nature photography and further global conservation efforts.

Eszterhas’ Baby Animals Eating is just full of the cutest critters you ever did see! Written in simple language for early readers, kids are treated to a variety of little ones of the animal kingdom eating their suppers. From leaf eating koalas, to egg munching raccoon kits, all kinds of animals are looked at, with very different feeding habits. My cubs and I quite enjoyed this book. Perfect for any toddler/preschoolers’ shelves.

This is the third book I read with my grandchildren in the Baby Animals series. It shows thirteen different animals, usually with their parents, describing what they eat. The animals vary in geography as well as some being well-known and others not being as familiar. The illustrations are beautiful photographs taken by Suzi Eszterhas, who is a wildlife photographer and animal activist. All the photos in this book are of baby animals and their families in the wild. The text that is included are short anecdotes describing what is happening in the pictures as well as identifying the animals. This is a great read aloud story for young children. A great non-fiction book to add to school and family libraries. A good book for any animal lovers. The publisher, Owlkids Books, generously provided me with a copy of this book to read. The opinions are my own.

This is a sweet book from a seasoned wildlife photographer about baby animals eating. It is the third book in the "Baby Animals" series and it showcases different species from around the world eating tailor-made food that will help them develop and grow.

The photographs are truly spectacular. They are large, clear and crisp featuring each baby in its natural surrounding. Underneath each picture is a short explanation of what the infants are eating and how they obtain their food.


Cleverly the author features first the name of the species and then the correct name for the baby: brown bear babies are called cubs, koala babies are joeys, jackals are pups, penguins are chicks, and a cheetah baby is called a cub, just to cite a few. I like that aspect very much.

I think wee ones will be mesmerized by the featured animals and informed by the read-aloud text. I recommend this book and suggest that it would be a wonderful addition in a classroom or a school library. The baby animals are simply adorable and the text teaches kids about animal behaviour in the wild.

Exactly what the title promises! Baby animals and facts about what they eat and how.

I received access to this title via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Super pictures !!! Not only pictures of baby animals eating but how they obtain their food, as well. Perhaps a matching quiz would be a good assessment? Delightful for early readers!


Thank you to Owlkids Books and NetGalley for a sweet read!

What’s not to love about this adorable book? Baby Animals Eating showcases 10 species from across the globe in the sweetest full-color photos. Includes brief educational descriptions on each creature. 5/5

Little are going to love looking at this story book! So cute! It's a very basic telling of what some animals eat and how they eat. the photos are wonderful!

Oh my gosh, this book made me so happy. The kids I work with will love this, too. Full of cute baby animals doing something we all know well -- being fed by mom. (I'm an adult and I still eat my mom's food!) Highly recommended.

The pictures of the baby animals and their parents in this book are exquisite! The language is simple but still engaging. This is short and sweet enough that it could be enjoyed as a bedtime story, but be sure to have the light on so your little one can enjoy all the beautiful photography. This would be great either read to younger children, or for early readers to read on their own or with a parent.

This book is full of absolutely beautiful pictures of baby animals and it was really fun to read with my toddler and preschooler. We giggled together about some of the "gross" parts, (like the animal parents chewing up the food and spitting it out for the baby!) and had fun learning more about animals together. Definitely a great book for a baby or toddler who loves animals!
