Carry Me
Babies Everywhere
Rena D. Grossman
This simple, photo-based board book shows real babies being carried in a wide range of ways—slings, wraps, front packs, back carries, in arms, and on hips—all around the world. With just a few words per page, it highlights how universal and loving babywearing is.
Why It’s Included
This book celebrates the diversity and normalcy of babywearing in everyday life. It affirms carrying as a natural caregiving practice across cultures and reflects the values of closeness, responsiveness, and connection central to our parenting philosophy.
Who It’s For
Ideal for babies and toddlers, but also great for older siblings learning about babywearing in their own family. A must-have for babywearing libraries, early childhood services, and family homes where carrying is part of daily life.
