Our Gorgeous Baby<\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Smriti Prasadam-Halls and Eve Coy<\/strong><\/p>\n

Smriti was inspired to write ‘Our Gorgeous Baby’ after reading Shakespeare’s Sonnet 130. <\/p>\n

With lyrical humour the story reflects the routine chaos a new baby brings upon a family and – in so doing – shows that even the slurpiest, burpiest, noisiest, smelliest and messiest of babies (multiple night-time wakings included) is no challenge whatsoever to the unbreakable bond and endless and unconditional love, care and affection a family has for their gorgeous baby.<\/p>\n
