From the publisher

“A sweet, rambunctious celebration of babyhood that begs for repeated readings.” –Kirkus Reviews (starred review)The cuteness meter is off the charts in this sweet and funny story from an exciting new picture-book talent, celebrating the chaos and joy that babies bring to our days. One Thursday morning, a box of babies arrived at this door. What do you do when a box of seven irresistibly plump babies appears on your doorstep? Do you invite them in? Of course you do! But seven babies turn out to be a lot of work: feeding, changing, wrangling, entertaining, bathing, so much laundry . . . Good thing babies love watching the washing machine spin around and around! Filled with the most adorable, relatable, and perfectly round-headed babies ever to grace a picture book, Forest Xiao’s celebration of the mess and the marvel of a new arrival is an ideal gift for little ones and anyone who loves them.
