King Baby by Scholastic / Arthur A. Levine Books

Kate Beaton, the #1 New York Times bestselling and Eisner Award-winning author and illustrator, returns with a laugh-out-loud picture book perfect for parents and kids, taking an honest look at life with a newborn in King Baby.

Why we like it: Babies are super cute … until they’re not. “Now. Bring me the thing!” King Baby rules his world. He calls his parents “subjects” and makes demands. All new parents will find themselves chuckling at King Baby’s trials and tribulations. My favorite part is the twist at the end – there’s only one thing that can upset King Baby’s dictatorship: Queen Baby!
