About the Author

Gabrielle Union is an actress, executive producer, activist, best-selling author and most recently, a Time100 cover honoree. Union formed her production shingle “I’ll Have Another” in 2018 with the goal of telling stories that center marginalized communities with their specific point of views in an authentic manner. In August of 2020, she relaunched her haircare brand “Flawless by Gabrielle Union” for women with textured hair. The new and improved collection includes an array of options, affordably priced between $4 - $10, that empowers consumers to customize a regimen specific to their texture and style preferences. Prior to relaunching Flawless, Union learned of the disparities in the food space and joined Bitsy's as a cofounder with the goal of making healthy, allergen- friendly, school-safe snacks that are accessible and affordable for all families regardless of their socioeconomic or geographical status. Her first book, We’re Going To Need More Wine: Stories That Are Funny, Complicated and True, was released in 2017 and instantly became a New York Times best seller. Union serves as a leader and advocate for inclusion in the entertainment industry. She is also a champion of breast health and combating sexual violence.



Ashley Evans loves creating colorful, fun, and dynamic images. Born and raised in Queens, NY, she now lives in Charlotte, NC, with her boyfriend and their daughter. When she’s not creating art, you can find Evans decorating cakes, enjoying her family, or catching a much needed nap!

This book is such a sweet book! It has a really adorable story that would be really great for older siblings to read to their new little siblings. The illustrations by Ashley Evans are fabulous so it's very visual for littles so it's a book that can definitely grow with baby.

I bought this book as soon as I heard about it. It's a great read for a child of any age, but especially a baby. It's very loving and welcomes the new child to the family. Love the colors.

Zuerst hat mich das gute Artwork und das Inlay sehr beeindruckt. Sehr liebevoll und individuell gestaltet! Viele kleine Details die einem nach und nach auffallen und immer wieder ein Grinsen hervorruft.

Die Musik an sich finde ich sehr gut. (sonst hätte ich das Album nicht gekauft)
Die Band polarisiert zwischen mehreren Genres, was ihnen hoffentlich bald noch mehr Erfolg einbringt. Ich würde es ihnen zumindest sehr gönnen.

Darum : 5/5 Sternen :)
