Brief summary-This is a cute book that starts out with moms and dads eating at a pie-eating contest.  The babies crawled away while their parents were distracted!  Peggy Rathman makes the reader the one to save the babies from the caves, trees, out on a ledge and more!  You will become the hero while reading this imaginative story. 

I would use this book to humor my students and make them feel special.  It is a funny story and they would easily pay attention to the interesting details.
