This illustrated gift title is for expectant parents or frazzled new parents who might need a little support during their first year of parenthood.

Featuring Helene the Illustrator's honest illustrations, each chapter looks at the different aspects of life with a new baby, from the first days of the newborn bubble through to the unbelievable milestone of their first birthday.

Helene began illustrating her experiences of motherhood after the birth of her daughter. She found herself frequently scrolling through Instagram and finding she couldn't relate to the picture-perfect mothers who littered her feed. She started sharing her art and was stunned by the response she received, from new parents who felt just like she did.

Helene's supportive, honest, empowering (and sometimes sweary) account of life with a new child unites parents from around the globe. While all parents, babies and births are different many of the emotions of new parenthood are universal. We are not alone, we're all in the same club and we've all got to do what we've got to do. We're all just making it up as we go along, hoping for the best!

In The Club is the hug, hot cup of tea - or massive glass of wine - that new parents who feel overwhelmed and under-qualified need.

  • This fully illustrated book offers a much-needed middle ground between the factual titles about birth and beyond and humour titles which paint parenthood as something to endure and not enjoy. Helene's illustrations are praised for their supportive yet honest nature.
