Baby Worries is a fun book about a baby who meets his extended family for the first time and starts to worry what he might look like when he grows up! His imagination runs away with him and he imagines the craziest things!
Will he inherit the huge, bushy eyebrows of Uncle Max? Perhaps he’ll have the wild, uncontrollable hair of Cousin Fern?
This funny, imaginative picture book celebrates the love, humour and banter that ensues when families get together. After all, who can resist the temptation to say, ‘He has your eyes’, or ‘I wonder if he’ll look like me?’
This picture book is sure to get everyone, young and old, giggling and laughing together – especially at the end where there is an added twist to the tale!
With its light-hearted approach to worrying, it’s the perfect discussion starter for exploring a child’s own feelings and worries.

Frances Mackay on Baby Worries.

And, now has over 90 educational books published in the UK and in Australia. From here she decided she wanted to write picture books and embarked on a self-publishing journey.
