“Babies Nurse ~ Asi se alimentan los bebes”

Babies Nurse Cover

Babies — whether pandas, puppies, or people — nurse. This bond is precious; this process, a natural art. Luminous illustrations and lyrical text will inspire conversations about caretaking in the natural world, while the bi-lingual format makes this charming book accessible to speakers of both Spanish and English.

“What a gentle book! It nurtures a child’s empathy for others and opens their eyes to the world of nature. Very sweet and educational.”

~ Dr. Harvey Karp, FAAP, author, The Happiest Baby on the Block

"This beautiful book magnificently demonstrates the natural and instinctual connection between a mother and her offspring. Breastfeeding is the first step in cultivating a healthy mind, gut and spirit for both mommy and her little ones. As a pediatrician and mother, I appreciate the simple text paired with the lovely illustrations. Brilliant and inspiring!”

~ Kristin Struble, M.D., mother and author of How to Be a “Poop” Detective

“Simple, rhyming, bilingual text and gentle, quiet illustrations introduce the very youngest reader and listener to that most natural and loving of activities—mothers nursing their offspring. Mothers and babies of the fields, jungles, air, and water are all portrayed, demonstrating that all mammal babies are nourished in the same way. This book will be invaluable in presenting nursing as something completely natural, normal, loving, and good for both babies and mothers.”

~ Wendy Watson, author and/or illustrator of over 60 books for children, Phoenix, Arizona
