**The hilarious, utterly relatable debut picture book from bestselling Holly Bourne, author of Am I Normal Yet? and So Thrilled For You.**

Ivy’s baby brother Joel is super cute. He gives really good snuggles, and he makes funny noises and smells. But Baby Joel does NOT like to sleep. He will ONLY nap in his buggy while it’s moving . . . which means that Mummy and Ivy go on lots of long walks while he sleeps!

Ivy always gets to have a strawberry glitter cupcake afterwards. Today, though, their walk is full of LOTS of noisy obstacles to navigate.

A noisy street performer . . . Oh, no!
A dozen barking dogs . . . Oh, help!
A helicopter chase? WHAT ON EARTH IS GOING ON?!

Will baby Joel stay asleep? Will Ivy get her cupcake? And will Mummy ever get to rest?

Holly Bourne celebrates all the highs and lows of a new baby with all her trademark warmth and humour, alongside hilarious illustrations by award-winning Ella Okstad.
