I think they just found someone who can draw and paint quite well and got them to do it. Maybe it was a young kid, but it was probably someone who knows very little about animals other than what they've learned from watching Animal Planet.
I think it's perfect to capture the imagination of a young child. Lots of color and illustration. It's also a reminder of the story. I get it. But I'm not gonna be that critical of it. It doesn't need to be totally politically correct in the mind of a child. Development will come as their minds mature. And they are exposed to more of the world. It's the parent's job to try to steer them in the right direction, till they start walking on their own. Carry on.
