Description
An adorably mischievous picture book about naughty babies. Otis was a very loud baby. He would scream and shout and bang things together.
One day, when his mommy and daddy couldn't take it any longer, they said, 'That's it! We're sending him back to the storks!' When word spreads across town that parents can send their naughty babies back to the storks, the storks' village is suddenly inundated. But are these babies really naughty, or do they actually have some special skills that the clever storks can put to good use? And what happens when the parents start to miss their naughty little babies? Perhaps their little babies aren't so naughty after all ... From sparkling new duo Cressida Gaukroger and illustrator Andrew Joyner comes this hilarious tale about naughty babies and their exasperated parents learning to get along - with a little help from the storks. Perfect for any household with a new arrival, and for fans of I Want My Hat Back (Jon Klassen), Back to the Storks is uproarious fun for the whole family! '(A) wickedly funny book. It's bonkers and joyous and you should get it.' -Tim Minchin, Matilda the Musical.
