Wild babies come in many different shapes and species.
From pufflings to porcupettes, meet some of our world's most incredible infants.
Philip Bunting celebrates the cute and cuddly babies of the animal world in this laugh-out-loud book. Wild About Babies is filled withPhilip's glorious illustrations and signature humour, combined with fascinating facts about the what childhood looks like across the animal kingdom.
Philip Bunting is an author and illustrator, with a soft spot for creating picture books for sleep-deprived, time-poor, raisin-encrusted parents (and their children).
Philips work deliberately encourages playful interaction between the reader and child, allowing his books to create a platform for genuine intergenerational engagement and fun. He believes that the more fun the child has during their early reading experiences, the more likely they will be to return to books, improve their emergent literacy skills, and later find joy in reading and learning.
Philips bookshave been translated into multiple languages and published in over 25 countries around the world. Since his first book was published in 2017, Philip has received multiple accolades, including Honours from the Childrens Book Council of Australia, and making the list for the Kate Greenaway Medal in 2018.
Philip grew up in the Englands Lake District and now lives with his young family in the hills behind Noosa.
