Raves and Reviews
"Philippa Rice has such a keen eye for extracting levity and grace from those muddled, fleeting moments of becoming a parent. She shows us how to roll with the storm." (Lauren R. Weinstein, cartoonist and author of Girl Stories)
"BABY is incredibly life affirming, and not just because it’s about having a baby. Even when Rice draws herself or her partner at a low point of despair she draws in a way that makes the beauty of their humanity shine through. It’s really an incredible magic trick, and it makes this book an essential read for any parent. Life is difficult, but oh so beautiful.” (James Kochalka, cartoonist and author of the Johnny Boo series)
"Philippa Rice describes pregnancy and life with a newborn in a beautiful, charming style that make the challenges seem manageable and a lot less frightening. Her drawings became my friends and provided a comforting lens to peer through. She is an expert at editing and controlling focus--a master at simplicity. The clarity with which she sees and presents her world is at the heart of what makes this book so soothing and appealing.” (Keiler Roberts, author of Rat Time and Chlorine Gardens)
"This book is so perfect and lovely. These little moments of early parenthood are so universal, while feeling so personal and strange. This book brought back all those early squishy days of laundry and milk and cuddles and tears.” (Lucy Knisley, author of Kid Gloves and Something New)
