Praise for Forest Xiao:'Joyous […] The babies’ expressive round faces recall Helen Oxenbury ’s drawings, but Xiao’s art has a zingier colour palette and a wildness of its own. It’s one of the cutest, and perhaps best, picture book portrayals of new parenthood that I’ve ever read.' - Observer on Seven Babies'Xiao’s delightful debut, exploring the everyday chaos that comes with having a baby in your life, has a similar look (and as much warmth) as Helen Oxenbury’s A First Book for Babies series.' - Bookseller on Seven BabiesWith irresistible, graphic paintings and happy, bouncy text, this board book is a must-have for a new baby's library as well as an ideal present for any new parent or carer to share and read aloud with their child - together you can learn to count all the way to ten!Babies love to look at pictures of other babies. And babies have never been sweeter, rounder and happier than in Forest Xiao's counting concept board book which gently introduces little ones to first numbers through objects and situations they're familiar with. Count to ten with babies on a see-saw, babies in a shopping trolley, fast asleep babies (but for how long?) and so much more.
