Astro Baby

This volume introduces a different “astro baby” for each of the astrological signs: “The moment you were born,/ time stood still/ and your chart was cast/ with a magical quill.” Perry illustrates the babies as phantasmagoric, brightly colored beings in diapers. Tea identifies the ruling planets and elements for each sign, along with personality attributes: Baby Leo (a standing figure with an orange mane and a tail) “loves/ to play and perform.” A horned Aries baby riding a rocket “likes to charge/ and play, she likes/ to do things/ first!” It’s a fun introduction to astrology with a background of lit-up, psychedelic skies. Ages up to 8.[em] (Apr.) [/em]
