Short Summary
Waiting for Baby was written and illustrated by Rachel Fuller for kids aged 1 to 3. Rachel is a seasoned book designer and illustrator who is best known for her colourful artwork.

What This Book Is About
When a baby is about to be born children can also feel the anticipation, especially when they observe the flurry of activity before the baby comes.
Children can feel curious, excited, and worried all at the same time. They have a million questions running through their mind, wondering about how their world is going to change once the baby comes.
This book perfectly captures that mix of emotions and questions. A book meant to be read together with an adult and child, it shares lessons about:
- Coping with the new situation
- Helping parents out in little ways
- The special bond between older and younger siblings
Reflection and Comments
The conversational tone of the book is perfect for younger kids. The colourful illustrations also help and the book encourages them to ask more questions and be more involved in the preparation.
