Overview

From an exciting and original new picture book talent comes a sweet and funny story about the chaos and joy a new baby brings into your life. One Thursday morning, a box of babies arrived at this door... The perfect gift for any new parent who will quickly understand that one baby is as busy and chaotic as having seven! But seven babies means ... seven times the love! With a simple text and hilarious pictures with a sweet ladybird family to search and find throughout, Seven Babies is also a cosy, funny bedtime read - ideal for getting little ones into books for the first time. What happens when a box of seven irresistibly round babies arrives on your doorstep? Do you invite them in? Of course you do! But seven babies (each with their own distinctive personality!) is a LOT of hard work, and everyone has to chip in: they need feeding, changing, entertaining, bathing... Don't forget ALL that laundry. Good thing babies just love watching the washing machine spin round and around! ""A wonderfully joyful picture book for introducing children to the concept of having a sibling."" - Waterstones

With a minimal text and scenes that are bursting with gentle humour, this light-hearted, playful tale is irresistible and certain to be requested over and over by little humans slightly older than those endearing visiting babies. -- Jill Bennett * Red Reading Hub *
