A parent would reach for this book when they want to share the magic of a pregnancy journey with a young child or help a soon-to-be big sibling understand the slow, beautiful process of waiting for a new family member. It serves as a gentle bridge between the abstract concept of 'a baby is coming' and the tangible reality of time passing, making it an ideal choice for families navigating the nine-month transition. The story follows the rhythmic development of a baby from the size of a sweet pea to a heavy pumpkin, emphasizing that the child was loved and wanted long before they arrived. With lyrical prose and inclusive illustrations, it celebrates all types of families and the universal feeling of joyful anticipation. It is particularly effective for soothing anxieties about change by reframing the wait as a period of shared preparation and deep affection. Parents of toddlers and preschoolers will appreciate how it validates the slow pace of time while providing a comforting narrative about the child's own origin story.
