Between the Internet revolution and the rave culture of this liberal city, young naive Evan is completely clueless about how to succeed. But he's determined to stumble on, looking for work, looking for love, and - ultimately - looking to define himself. Soon, though, the troubles of his past catch up with him, and everything begins to unravel.

A very simple and enchanting book with sturdy card pages, that introduces the concept of mothers and babies in the animal world. The book works as a guessing game - the animal with the question: "Whose baby am I?" on one page and the answer revealedon the next.

A beautiful book and guessing game in one. Lots of cuddly animals like a kitten and dormouse sit alongside the less adorable slugs and spiders. Try and guess the most appropriate reaction - if you see a kitten, say 'Aaah' and if you see a spider, say 'Eeek!'. Highly interactive book for young toddlers.

A wonderfully tactile board book version of John Butler's fabulous Who Says Woof? Five favourite animals are here in all their furry, fuzzy glory, highlighted with beautifully soft flocking, making this book and guessing game a real visual and tactile treat.
