This
children's book is a delight for the senses as it embraces
you with it's vibrant illustrations and the joy of a
new baby being born at home. Trinity is welcoming a new
baby brother, Jimi Jazz into the family.
The
book is written and illustrated by Chrissy Butler — artist,
author, mama, and doula (trained by Dr Michel Odent).
All
the excitment and preparations for the approaching birth
are beautifully illustrated. Trinity tells of her hopes and
excitement as the birth approaches.The birth is warm and intimate
as the family embraces their new child. You can almost feel
all the love they share through the pages.
Lots of animals, nature, huge sunflowers and a placenta tree.
A Baby Moon, cloth nappies, breastfeeding and cosleeping are
also beautifully illustrated.
There
are very few books available which introduce stories of natural
homebirth into children's lives. This would be a wonderful
book for pregnant mamas to read to their older children in
preparation for a home birth. As more and more children get
to share in the excitement and joy of their little brothers
and sisters being born at home, it is fantastic to have this
beautiful book available to read to them.
