Pandemic Baby: Becoming a Parent in Lockdown
Autor Pia Bramleyen Limba Engleză Hardback – 3 noi 2021
A moving, funny exploration of life as the parent of a lockdown baby, by illustrator Pia Bramley.
Since March 2020, babies have been born into a world of masks, hand washing and social distancing. They met their grandparents on video calls. Their parents held them up to windows and took them for long walks in the rain.
Pia Bramley’s illustrations capture the intimacy of the small, strange world of the pandemic baby. She draws on her own experience as a new parent, telling the story of a child's first year against the backdrop of the pandemic: the quiet streets of the first lockdown, the relative freedom of summer, the long nights of autumn and winter and, finally, new hope as spring arrives and life begins to open up again. Moving, funny and deeply honest, this is a book for every parent, grandparent, aunt, uncle or friend who waited to hold their pandemic baby.
'Pia Bramley's beautiful, scratchy ink vignettes capture the strangeness of being a new parent in the pandemic. Her drawings are sparse, expressive and tender. This is a perfect book.' Isabel Greenberg, Eisner Award-winning author ofThe Encyclopedia of Early Earth,One Hundred Nights of HeroandGlasstown.

‘A
thing
to
treasure
and
keep
close
at
hand.
I
would
prescribe
it
to
the
lost
and
the
lonely,
the
busy
and
the
overburdened,
the
heart-broken
and
the
happy’
