Steve Jenkins



In My First Day, husband and wife team Steve Jenkins and Robin Page explore what animals do on the first day they are born. For an newborn animal, the first twenty-four hours can be a challenge. Using torn and cut paper collage, each animal almost jumps off the page. On my first day, it was dark, and I was surrounded by a million other baby bats. But when my mother returned from catching insects, my cry and scent led her right to me.  Mexican Free-Tailed Bat.

The authors include brief scientific information for each entry at the end of this excellent science book.
