The Big Surprise
A heartwarming children's book about welcoming a new baby and understanding pregnancy-told in a way little ones can understand.
What happens when Mommy says there's a baby growing in her tummy? For one curious child, it opens up a world of wonder!
The Big Surprise is a beautifully illustrated children's book that helps toddlers and early readers (ages 3-7) understand pregnancy and the excitement of becoming a sibling. Designed for families looking to explain where babies come from in a positive, age-appropriate way, this story follows the journey from morning sickness and ultrasounds to feeling kicks and learning about trimesters.
Perfect for:
Told with warmth, clarity, and respect for the value of life, this story encourages kindness, curiosity, and love for the newest family member-even before birth. It's a wonderful tool for parents, grandparents, teachers, and churches to use when introducing the idea of a new baby in the family.
Part of the Made For Our Family series, The Big Surprise gently affirms that every baby is fearfully and wonderfully made-and that big brothers and sisters have an important role in the journey.
