From the very first hours of life to their first steps, Baby travels — tied in a wrap, swaddled in a cloth, tucked into a basket, or nestled in a hood! With great delicacy, this book shows how babies are carried across the world.

Eva Bensard and Gabrielle Berger invite little ones to discover the thousand and one ways of carrying babies around the world. Through a narrative full of tenderness, the illustrations take readers on a journey across the five continents.

• A universal theme: the bond between parent and baby through babywearing, an experience shared across all cultures.

• An original birth gift: a tender and poetic picture book, ideal for celebrating the arrival of a child.
