A delightful board book for toddlers and adults to have fun experimenting with words to create funny new ones. Selected as a White Raven 2022 and a Bank Street Best Children's Book of the Year 2023. Playful animals get up to everyday toddler mischief in this board book built on child-based wordplay, where each page twists animal names into funny new words that are fun to share. With illustrations drawn from a toddlers world, babies and young children will recognize each activity―getting dressed, playing, painting (including themselves), having a bath, using the potty―and see how the animal makes the mischievous most of it. The bumblebee breaks its toy―bumblebee grumblebee! The cockatoo is getting dressed―cockatoo sockatoo! The pelican tries out the potty―pelican smellican! What will turtle do? Everybody gathers for the final squirtle. Built for adults, babies and toddlers to share and read aloud, this fresh and sweet board book encourages experimentation with words and sounds, just by changing a letter or two.

David Elliot? A master."―Betsy Bird Praise for Oink: "Told only in animal dialect and sound effects but with brilliant visual details, this story will become a bathtime favorite."―Kirkus Reviews, Starred Praise for Oink: "Gorgeous Books to Expand the Youngest Minds: The delicacy and subtlety of the art only adds to the frisky humor."―The New York Times
