You, Me and the Breast

Alisha Bourke

This tender picture book tells the story of the intimate bond formed through breastfeeding, from the perspectives of both parent and child. It celebrates the comfort, connection, and nourishment that nursing provides, capturing the everyday moments that make this relationship special.

Why It’s Included

This book aligns with our philosophy of breastfeeding as a relational, nurturing act beyond nutrition. It supports full-term nursing and responsive care, encouraging families to see breastfeeding as a normal and beautiful part of everyday life.

Who It’s For

Ideal for babies through to preschoolers, and a comforting read for parents and siblings alike. It’s especially valuable for families who breastfeed openly and want to normalise nursing within their homes and communities.
