It's a Kangaroo Thing! (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781969021695)

Mama 'Roo, the nervous kangaroo, peers at her tiny preemie in an isolette in the NICU. But her heart does a happy hop when Dr. Jack reveals the secret weapon for helping wee Joey flourish - Kangaroo Care!

If you are a parent who is traveling or has traveled the NICU journey, you understand like no other, the difficulty of bonding with your baby in an overwhelmingly scary environment where nothing feels normal as you observe your tiny fighter in an isolette, surrounded by wires and machines.

Practicing Kangaroo Care (skin-to-skin contact) is the ultimate bonding time, delivering the most powerful medicine known to human and 'roo-kind - mom and dad's soothing voices, cozy warmth, and boundless love.

This book is a testament to the beauty of bonding with your little one in the NICU. This book was designed to be read in and out of the NICU so your little "Joey" can feel your warmth and hear your voice. This book is also a keepsake - you can add your baby's picture, NICU stats, and it even has pages to get autographs from the NICU care team who ultimately become family!
