How You Came to Be, Hardback Book

How You Came to Be Hardback

Illustrated by Sawsan Chalabi

Hardback

Description

This love letter written from mother to child invites readers to experience a baby's month-by-month development in the womb as compared to familiar fruits and vegetables. A mother lovingly describes the sizes and stages of her baby's month-by-month development inside the womb, and the amazement of experiencing it from the outside.

Look at you - as big as a banana! Some of your cells formed into bones,and your arms and legs grew longer. I could feel you kick!Sometimes when I rubbed my belly,I felt you thump back. Was that your way of saying hello?Simple, age-appropriate facts are woven into a tender and lyrical text that celebrates the miracle of a baby.

It demystifies and informs readers, while simultaneously appreciating the wonder of it all.

A perfect read-aloud for mother and child, or for children whose mothers are pregnant with a younger sibling.
