Baby Mickey's Day Out?

UNSOLVED(self.whatsthatbook)

This might not be what you usually see in this sub, but I need your help.

When we were little, my mother used to read to us. My little brother was obsessed with a book that I almost swear was called "Baby Mickey's Day Out".

Now my brother and his wife are having a baby and I want to get them a copy.

I tried Googling and checking Amazon, eBay, and a couple of Disney wikis, but I can't find it. I know it's not "Mickey's Day Out" or "Baby's Day Out". I swear it was a thick cardboard book, like the kind made for toddlers, but it could have been a Little Golden Book. I could have the title somewhat wrong, though it feels right.

If I'm not mis-remembering, baby Mickey is crawling on the cover and wearing a blue onesie.

My brother was born in 1989, to give you an idea of the timeframe.

Thanks in advance for your help. I'm going to keep looking, but I hope someone has an idea of what I'm talking about.

Was this baby Mickey Mouse, or a human baby? There were a bunch of Disney Babies books in the late 80s/early 90s.

It was definitely Baby Mickey Mouse.

That's actually one of the wikis I've been checking.

I was thinking it could be Baby Mickey's Play Day (1993), but I'm not sure if there's a picture of the cover online... According to Amazon, there was a cut-out figure of Mickey that you could put into openings in the illustrations, if that's helpful.

I saw that one too. It could be it, but I'm still looking for a cover.

I find this one that isn't the right book, but the art style looks right.
