Robert Munsch - Alligator Baby

The new baby is home. The only problem? It's an alligator.

In Alligator Baby, Kristen's parents come home from the hospital with the wrong baby — and then the wrong baby again — before Kristen takes matters into her own hands and heads to the zoo to find her actual brother. What follows is exactly the kind of wonderfully unhinged adventure only Robert Munsch could dream up.

Why You'll Love It

A classic Munsch premise executed to perfection — absurd, fast-moving, and laugh-out-loud funny from the very first page. Kids love the idea of a kid outsmarting the grown-ups, and the zoo-animal mix-ups keep the energy high all the way through. A beloved favourite, now with a fresh new cover.
