From the acclaimed creator of the Chirri & Chirra books, Kaya Doi, comes this absolutely adorable picture book about Tama the cat and her baby sister.

Tama has never seen a baby before, so when a newborn comes to her house, she's in for a big surprise. Babies, as Tama quickly learns, cry and fuss and sleep and sleep--but they also laugh and play and explore, offering the sweetest smiles and the warmest hugs.

Before long, Baby starts to crawl and follows Tama everywhere, and the two become the best of sisters and the best of friends. And no matter how much Baby grows--getting bigger and older than the cat herself--she will always be Tama's baby sister.

Written and illustrated by Kaya Doi, Tama and Baby is a playful, heartwarming story about welcoming a new baby into the family--perfect for baby showers, new siblings, and families adjusting to joyful change.
