Welcoming a new baby is a whirlwind of joy, but for your firstborn, it can feel like their whole world is being rearranged. The fear of being replaced or the sting of jealousy is real, but it doesn’t have to be the story.
This is a book about belonging. It’s a funny, honest, and deeply moving tale for children aged 2 to 9+ that bridges the gap between being "the only one" and "the big one." By showing them exactly what to expect, from the sweet cuddles to the noisy nappies, we turn their anxiety into a sense of pride. It’s the perfect way to tell them: "Our family is growing, but you are still our heart."
This is truly a personalised children's book like no other. You don't just add a name; you build the avatars. Customise the big sibling (ages 2–9), the new baby, and both parents. When your child sees their own lounge, their own parents, and their own face on the pages, the lessons stick and the fears melt away.
Most books pretend babies are perfect dolls. We tell the funny truth! From "exploding" nappies to why babies cry at 3 AM, we prepare your eldest for the reality of a newborn. By laughing at the chaos together, you turn potential conflict into a shared family joke.
Whether you’re a multilingual family or sending a gift across the sea, we’ve got you covered. This book is available in English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Polish, Russian, and Romanian. It’s the perfect way to ensure the message of love and siblinghood is understood in your family’s heart-language.
Real Life, but Funnier Preparing for the "Burpy" bits. We skip the fairy tales and dive into the real, relatable moments of life with a newborn. From the mystery of why babies cry to the "magic" of being a big sibling helper, we use humour to take the pressure off. It’s a tool for parents to start those big conversations while laughing together over a bedtime story.
