New baby · for your friends

A new baby gift for your friends: a book about the two of them becoming parents

You do not have to be family to write it. Ask one of them how they heard, or use what they told you, and answer three questions, and up to three more if you want more of the book to be yours. The book follows the two of them from the news to the first weeks at home and ends on your wishes for the baby.

Which book, and why

The cover of And Then There Were Three

And Then There Were Three

Made for this moment and for a giver outside the family: the questions are about the two of them, so a friend can answer from what they have shared.

Twelve Reasons Why

Common questions

Do I need to know when and where they heard the news?

It helps, and it is easy to find out by asking one of them. If you cannot, answer the required questions with what you do know and leave the optional ones.

Can I give it at the baby shower?

Yes, if you approve it in time. The digital edition opens when you approve it, and a printed copy takes the production and shipping time listed on this page. You need a photo of each parent, and the baby is drawn in only once there is a photo of the baby.

Does it work as a surprise?

Yes, with one condition. Setup asks you to confirm that each person drawn has agreed to appear, so check that both parents know or have said it is fine. You also approve every page yourself, so what they receive is exactly what you read, and you see it free before you pay.
