Kia Ora Baby

A BOOK ABOUT BABY SIBLINGS FOR KIWI KIDS.

Having a new baby in the family is a big adjustment for not only the parents, but existing siblings as well.

Donovan Bixley shows a family expecting a new baby, then the arrival and changes at home, with the older sibling dealing with changes in attention level and expectations leading through to the joy of another family member to play with.

As with all of Donovan’s books, it is bright and colourful, hopeful, full of funny moments and the perfect way to get a child ready to accept a new small person into the whānau.

  • “Kia ora Baby is a slice of Kiwi cuteness with gorgeous illustrations. It follows the journey of a family as a new baby is added to their whānau. Classic Kiwi iconography appears on the page and the scenes really bring to life the beauty and happiness of the family.”
