Libro cartonato 'Baby is Born'

The pages are thick enough that my one-year-old can grab and turn them without any tearing, which is huge for us right now. It's become part of our bedtime routine, and the simple, warm illustrations actually hold her attention for a few quiet minutes.

My toddler loves flipping through this on his own—the sturdy board pages have survived some serious chewing and throwing. It's a sweet way to talk about our new baby without making him feel left out.

The pages are thick and really hold up to my one-year-old tugging at them, which I appreciate. I bought it to help prepare my toddler for a new sibling, and the simple, gentle story has already become a bedtime favorite.
