A Ride On Mother's Back

I fell in love with this book the very first time I saw it, years before my grandchildren were born! I recall purchasing a copy for the library at the @ozbreastfeeding breastfeeding centre I ran and the pleasure it gave the families who visited.

The centre services one of the most multicultural communities in Australia, with nearly 200 countries of origin and 80 spoken languages. To see so many cultures featuring the connection of #babywearing was wonderful!

Now I share my own family copy with my grandchildren and they see their community represented, including their classmates in an equally multicultural part of Melbourne. They see babies who are carried like their baby brother and the babies they see at our #babywearing meets and markets. They are a second generation of Australian children who are growing up with a culture of carrying babies.
