Review Detail

Pete and Leonie is a visually charming book about a wild baby and a gentle coyote. Neither fit into their family's expectations very well until one day they each wander into the other's home and get mistaken for each other. The illustrations are the perfect complement to the text and enhance the story. Through the illustrations, we see many humorous situations as the great baby mix-up continues through the day. Each baby loves their new home but does miss their old home after a while. The resolution to the story is lovely. Overall, children will enjoy this silly tale and pour over the illustrations to join in the humorous surprises along the way.
