Nanny to Mommy

I am so excited to share a new picture book from triple Caldecott winner David Wiesner: Robobaby. In this hilarious gem, it’s big sister to the rescue when a new baby is delivered to a family of robots and the adults are flummoxed by technical difficulties. 

About the Book: A new baby's arrival is a big moment in any family, even a family of robots. Award winner David Wiesner captures the excitement and fanfare when baby Flange appears—as a crate full of components. The adults bungle the process of assembling Flange, with catastrophic results. Big sister Cathy, with her handy toolbox and advanced knowledge of robotics and IT, hasn't been allowed to help, but in the ensuing chaos she calmly clears up the technical difficulties and bonds with her new baby brother. 

Robobaby is an eye-opening blend of the familiar and the fanciful that is laugh out loud funny. Gorgeously illustrated, it joyously celebrates girl ingenuity and maker culture in a fantastically fun way.

I have been wanting to give something back to my delivery drivers (Amazon, USPS, FEDEX, UPS, etc.) because I receive so many packages and I know so many of us are getting extra deliveries due to current pandemic.

With the holidays upon us, they are working more than ever and I thought it would be nice to show my appreciation by creating this little goodies care basket so they could pick something they might like. PLUS along with it, I made a FREE printable sign that you could use as well if you would like to show your appreciation too. You could also include Door Dash or InstaCart in your essential delivery as well.
