Counting Catnaps, a heartfelt numbers book for babies and sleep-deprived parents by Laura Somerson, displayed in a cosy, sunlit nursery. The colourful hardcover sits on a soft lavender blanket beside a warm cup of tea, with a sleeping tabby cat curle

Count the cuddles.

Not the hours of sleep.

The mess is real. The cuddles are precious. The tea is always cold.

Counting Catnaps takes little readers on a journey from one to twelve through the beautifully ordinary moments of life with a baby.

From laundry mountains to sleepless nights, every page captures a familiar little moment, with plenty of love and a knowing smile for the grown-ups reading along.

Because early parenthood isn't always picture-perfect. But it's full of moments worth counting.
