Tom's baby clothing put on figure (6)
I believe the answer is:
kitten
'tom's' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'baby clothing put on figure' is the wordplay.
'baby clothing' becomes 'kit' (I've seen this in other clues. I am not sure about the 'baby' bit.).
'put on' says to put letters next to each other.
'figure' becomes 'ten' (ten is a number).
'kit'+'ten'='KITTEN'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for kitten that I've seen before include "youngster" , "New cat" , "Young rabbit" , "Beatrix Potter's Tom, say" , "one to become queen?" .)
