MEDIA REVIEWS
Also from Walker comes King Baby, Kate Beaton’s hilarious take on baby solipsism and parental abasement. [...] Beaton’s second picture book is rich in egg-shaped infant chrysalises and her trademark manic humour, which will appeal to both parent and child. - The Guardian
The grandiosity of his [King Baby’s] speech echoes Beaton’s popular Hark! A Vagrant web comic, and will amuse readers both young and old. - The Irish Times
Everything about this book is funny: even the title itself is smirk-inducing. The cover is a joyous thing to behold and the joy continues... King Baby is genuinely brilliant. The clever text and genius illustration play against each other to hilarious effect. King Baby is a fantastic premise, expertly executed. It will have adults and children in stitches, and like all great comedy, it shows something true. Buy it for every new parent you know. - Booktrust
The perfect book to entertain new parents and young children alike. - Irish Independent
“Readers aged three to five will adore the dictatorial toddler in Kate Beaton’s King Baby […]” - The Irish Times
