Football Baby

Illustrated by Charlene Chua
Look inside
The youngest of readers and the sports-loving grown-ups in their lives can now enjoy America's most popular sport--football--before going to bed a winner.

Autumn brings a slight chill in the air, leaves changing color, and of course, football season! This pair of siblings is putting on their gear, warming up, and trying to get a play going all before a quick apple cider break at halftime. A change in sides brings new momentum and the chance to score a touchdown before they lay their heads to rest.
CHARLENE CHUA grew up in Singapore and immigrated to Canada as an adult. She has illustrated almost twenty picture books, including Hug?, Going Up, Raindrops to Rainbow and Amy Wu and the Perfect Bao. She lives in Hamilton, Ontario, with her husband and their two cats. View titles by Charlene Chua
