Bush Baby is so lonely—nobody wants to be her friend. Giraffe thinks she's too small. She's not pink enough for Flamingo. Lion, however, thinks she is just right to be his friend. And he'd never be so rude as to eat a friend, thank you very much.
Is Bush Baby very brave, very foolish, or just very, very lonely?
Learn to never judge a book by its cover in award-winning Russell Ayto's laugh-out-loud tale of friendship and acceptance.

Review
Bush Baby is very lonely. All the animals say they couldn’t possibly be friends—Snake says that Bush Baby has too many legs, Toad is horrified that Bush Baby has a tail, and Flamingo takes issue that Bush Baby isn’t pink. Bush Baby finally approaches Lion, who says thoughtfully that Bush Baby looks just right—and that the other animals don’t want to be friends with Lion for some reason. And when the other animals ask Lion and Bush Baby to be friends at last, Lion starts feeling hungry…
A funny, simple book about friendship, individuality, and finding your place in the world. Expressive illustrations on bright, solid backgrounds give this book an energetic, exaggerated feel, which makes the punchline zing!
