From the acclaimed creator of the Chirri & Chirra books, Kaya Doi, comes this absolutely adorable book about Tama the cat and her baby sister.

Tama the cat has never seen a baby before. So when a newborn comes to Tama's house, the cat is in for a big surprise! As Tama quickly learns, babies cry and fuss and sleep and sleep, but they also laugh and play and explore, and give the sweetest smiles and the warmest hugs. Soon, Baby starts to crawl and begins to follow Tama around, and the pair becomes the best of sisters and the best of friends. And no matter how old she gets or how big she grows compared to the cat, Baby will always be Tama's little sister!

Written and illustrated by Kaya Doi, this is a playful and heartwarming picture book about welcoming a new baby into the family—perfect for baby showers and new siblings!
