Small But Mighty

Small But Mighty is a beautifully illustrated children's book that highlights the bond between a mother and her premature baby in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. Follow her journey as she cares for her baby in the NICU, experiencing the joy, grief and unconditional love that comes with the birth of a preemie.

This book was written specifically for mothers to read to their NICU babies. Every year, an estimated 15 million babies are born prematurely. They often require lengthy hospitalization that may result in speech and language delays later in life. Reading to preemies not only improves brain development, but may improve their vocabulary and reading proficiency as children and teens.

Many NICU moms report feeling helpless. It can be weeks, or even months, before they're able to participate in their baby's care. Reading Small But Mighty helps mothers to play an important role in their baby's long-term growth and development. And, as their preemie grows, this book serves as a reminder of the triumphant milestones accomplished in the NICU!
