Description

A gentle rhyming story that follows four babies as they explore their world around them.

Once upon my bottom,
my legs stayed on the floor.
Unless I toppled backways, then they ...
waved around some more!


From once upon my blanket to once upon my legs, see the children gradually find their feet.
