Is this Racist?

Merynn got a new book and while reading it to her, we came across this picture.


Is this racist? A “babygro?” Is that a play on words for black babies or something?

I think if it said “babyfro” it would be racist.

babyfro and babygro – kinda the same, huh?

Yeah, I did find babygro searching Google. Never did hear that term before. Don’t see why the book didn’t use a different baby to illustrate babygro.
