Under smooth waves in the ocean blue,
you swim, my baby, oh-so new.

Touch-and-feel meets lift-the-flap in this heartwarming board book for the very young! Turn the sturdy pages to see Baby Seahorse lovingly swim alongside Daddy Seahorse and lift the fabric flaps as they pass by playful yet kind fish, small yet strong lobsters, and a very brave new octopus wading out for the first time on its own.

Ending with a hopeful wish from caregiver to baby, this book focusses on the beautiful, bright future that lies ahead for an ‘oh-so new’ baby as it continues to grow. Little hands will also discover five DIFFERENT textured flaps such as smooth waves, bumpy coral, rough rocks, slippery seaweed and a shiny shell in a complete sensory experience designed to stimulate curiosity.
