Reach for this book when your child starts asking direct, curious questions about where babies come from or how animals are born. It is an ideal resource for families preparing to welcome a new pet or even a new human sibling, as it demystifies the process of birth and early development with clinical clarity and emotional warmth. The book follows a Burmese cat named Sula through the birth of her kittens and their first eight weeks of life. Using beautiful, documentary-style photography, the narrative emphasizes the natural miracle of growth and the instinctive care a mother provides. It is gentle enough for preschoolers but detailed enough to satisfy the scientific curiosity of early elementary students. By focusing on the tangible needs of the kittens: warmth, milk, and protection: it helps children build empathy and an appreciation for the vulnerability of all newborns.
