“The Baby-to-Be is a heartfelt book that truly captures the emotional journey of IVF. As someone who has been through it, I found the book both comforting and empowering. It resonates with the struggles, hope, and joy of the process in such a beautiful way.

I’m so glad I discovered this book, and I’ll definitely be sharing it with my IVF mama friends. Highly recommend it to anyone who has gone through the journey and has their little miracle on the way, like me, or already earthside!”

“Photos don’t do the illustrations in this book justice. The Afremov-style images are sublime and the book is a fun journey through some of the lesser known animal sounds!”

Sarah T

“It truly is a beautiful book. I love the yellow pastel theme, as it signifies hope. I loved your heartfelt words too, they were so sweet and resonating with me especially having been through the IVF journey myself and lucky to be on the other side. Thank
you for this beautiful piece.”

“My kids have always considered me an expert on animal sounds, but some of these animals had me stumped! With vibrant illustrations and catchy rhyming couplets, this book was a delight!”

Kindle Customer

“You'll be re-reading this one with your littlies over and over and over.

A fun twist on the boring old farm animal noises, 'The Animal Says What?' with its bright colourful illustrations, will challenge the young readers (listeners) to attempt to make these unusual animal noises. I can see this book becoming a family favourite.”

“This book was delightful!

My son's favourite animal is the Zebra and he was stuck on this page for quite a while admiring the image. A cute little book for kids. I really enjoyed the style of the images.”

Bec Walraven

“What a fantastic animal-themed book that’s perfect for little ones. The author has done a fantastic job of keeping the rhymes short and engaging for young readers, and the graphic illustrations are really eye-catching for capturing their attention.

We’d recommend this book to anyone with young children who are looking for the perfect bedtime (or even just storytime) story, and are wanting to learn about all the amazing animals in the world and their various sounds!”

Thomas Jensen

This is such a charming picture book that introduces little ones to animal sounds in the most delightful way. Each page is playful and engaging, making it perfect for read-aloud moments. The sounds are cute and made my boys laugh.
A fun and educational addition to any toddler’s bookshelf!”

Su

“The book is definitely a winner for little minds that are curious to identify noises of not so popular animals. Living in NZ, I was curious to find out what NZ's kiwi says. Aren't I happy.😊
A good read for kids and full of colourful illustrations.”

Sarah T

“After a three year IVF journey and four rounds of treatment, I was finally able to read this story to my miracle baby boy, born in 2023. It brought tears to my eyes and filled my heart with gratitude.

This book is a touching tribute to all the IVF parents and their little miracles. It truly captures the love, hope, and resilience that come with the journey. The illustrations are also wonderfully done... gentle, warm, and full of emotion.

I highly recommend it to any family who has walked this path or to those just beginning their IVF journey. It’s more than a children’s book, it is a celebration of strength, love, and the miracles that come after the struggle.”

Casey

“A beautiful way to introduce IVF and assisted fertility... whether you’re reading to your own IVF miracle baby or using it to read to others to help them understand not all families are made in the same way. The lovely rhyme and gentle repetition make it lovely to read aloud, and I really appreciate that it doesn’t shy away from the feelings of longing and loneliness that can be part of the journey. It's also wonderful to see the use of more accurate terminology (like Mum’s eggs, womb, and cells), which is so refreshing in a children’s book (particularly when you are wanting to use it to educate). Such a beautiful book and I highly recommend!”

Meaghan
