A beautiful personalised baby book celebrating the beginning of a child’s journey - a meaningful keepsake to treasure for years to come.
When a baby is born, the world does not change. And yet, somehow, it feels entirely different. Smaller, because your focus narrows to this one tiny person. Larger, because the world has quietly shifted to make room for them.
Welcome to the World is a personalised keepsake book created especially for the baby it is made for. This personalised story gently introduces the world that now lies before them.
Their name is woven throughout the pages as the book reflects on:
It is not about predicting who they will become. It is about recognising the wide, wonderful and interesting world that is now theirs to explore. Thoughtfully written and beautifully illustrated, this personalised baby keepsake book captures the sense of wonder that comes with welcoming a child into the world.
This personalised keepsake book is ideal for:
Why I created this book, from author and illustrator Lucy Tapper: I created Welcome to the World because I love the idea that every baby arrives into a world already full of stories, seasons and possibilities. There is something steadying in that thought. The sky will still change colour each evening. The sea will still come in and out. The world carries on, and they are now part of it. I wanted to write a story that gently opens that door. Not with big promises, but with quiet optimism. A way of saying, there is a world here for you. Take your time discovering it.I‘ve depicted the new arrival as a playful, gregarious baby elephant, full of spirit and adventure.
