Robo-Babies Summary

Robo-Babies by Laura Gallagher

Following the birth of her miracle baby - from the one viable embryo - Laura decided to create a story that allowed other families to talk about and celebrate the many different ways that babies arrive into the world. This magical story for preschool children introduces a variety of robot families and their babies, of all shapes and sizes, and explains, in simple terms, the different ways families can be formed as well as the range of emotions parents can feel in relation to starting a family. Robo-Babies is a warm and gentle story for sharing with children who perhaps arrived into their families down a more complicated path, but is also perfect for sharing with all children as a way to normalise the many different ways babies can meet their parents.

About Laura Gallagher

Laura Gallagher never imagined her journey to motherhood would be one fraught with fear, stress and anxiety. She conceived her son through IVF and experienced the ups and downs of the nerve-wracking journey this entailed, culminating in the exhilarating and overwhelming arrival of her son. Laura's debut, Robo-Babies was created in consultation with a focus group of 50 families that have experienced fertility issues, IVF, surrogacy, adoption or donation, to ensure an accurate and sensitive representation of all family types. Laura also hopes the book will help to break the taboos around fertility issues and give families with experience of this a platform to be represented, celebrated, and empowered to talk about and feel positive about their journeys to parenthood.
