Is Your Mama a Llama? Review
My son received this book on his first birthday, and we've read it every night since. It was an instant favorite in our house - charming rhymes, interesting illustrations and a very cute story as the llama goes around asking all of his animal friends if their mamas are llamas. Each rhyme explains what makes different animals unique, and what distinguishes them from llamas.
This and The Big Red Barn are our must-read bedtime books!
Is Your Mama a Llama? Overview
Lloyd the Llama discovers what kind of animal his mama really is in this delightful guessing game picture book, filled with whimsical riddles and endearing illustrations. Rhyming questions and answers will charm and amuse children. "An enchanting animal guessing game."--School Library Journal. Full-color illustrations.
Is Your Mama a Llama? Specifications
The board book version of this popular recitation of animal characteristics is equally as delightful as other editions, with one key improvement: it's inedible. This robust reissue follows lovable Lloyd the llama on his quest to find out what percentage of the baby animal population has llamas for mamas. The rhymes are original and infectious, and the riddles are sure to have children shouting out the answers in anticipation of turning the page.
Youngsters often exhibit an insatiable appetite for adorable baby animals, and Is Your Mama a Llama provides plenty of fodder for fawning. Illustrator Steven Kellogg, however, manages to keep the pictures sweet without being saccharine. And rest assured, no matter how often your little one is compelled to kiss the critters, the sturdy board-book format will stand the test of time (and of course, slobber). (Ages 0 to 4)

Best Book! - megfitzpat -
Not only do my children love this book, but it is one of my (and my husband's) favorites books to read to them. I would highly reccommend this book and will add it to my baby shower "staples" list!

I really like the content of the book and the illustrations. However the cover was pretty bent out of shape when it arrived, which was really disappointing.

Lloyd the llama asks his young friends of different species "Is your Mama a llama?" and gets cute rhyming responses that pose a riddle. It is fun for kids to "guess" the answer. I especially love the the detailed illustrations with the adorable mother baby pairs hidden in many of the pages. All in all quite charming and has been a favorite we return to again and again at slightly different ages (1-3 years).
