Why we Love Baby in the Mirror...
Take two new and sleep deprived mums, a couple of babies obsessed with their own reflection, the lack of a great mirror book, some crowd funding and a super talented illustrator and you have the birth of Baby in the Mirror!
Of course nothing is ever that simple as Australia based mums, Celeste Morgan and Hannah Gibson discovered as they negotiated the strange worlds of specialist printing and bulk importing. Who new that finding good quality, non-glass mirrors and integrating them into a book would be so difficult! Undeterred they also teamed up with Danish Illustrator Michelle Carslund to help bring the animal characters to life!
Necessity is indeed the mother of invention and who better than mums to do the inventing!
