This board book version of Frida Kahlo—an international bestseller in the critically acclaimed Little People, BIG DREAMS series—introduces the youngest dreamers to this world-renowned painter.
When Frida was a teenager, a terrible road accident changed her life forever. Unable to walk, she began painting from her bed. Her self-portraits, which show her pain and grief, but also her passion for life and instinct for survival, have made her one of the most famous artists of the twentieth century. Babies and toddlers will love to snuggle as you read to them the engaging story of this fascinating painter, and will also enjoy exploring the stylish and quirky illustrations of this sturdy board book on their own.

If you're a super rad friend or family that's buying a gift for a little one, take these tips into consideration when choosing your styles and sizes:
SIZING for Babies: Size NB for most lines (including ours) fits up to the first few months of age. We do this so the little bundle will get as much use out of the clothing as possible, and more bang for your buck! But that also means that if you're hoping for a 1 week old to wear your gift, he/she may be swimming a bit in the clothes. The only ones that small will either be labeled "preemie" - look for clothes labeled for 7lbs if you're looking for something for the babes to wear immediately.
SIZING for Toddlers: When buying for a toddler, when in doubt, always buy a size up... but don't go too crazy. Remember that most brands will add room to grow, and that the size on the label is on the lower end of the age range appropriate for that garment. For example, if you're buying a gift for a 20 month old, it's adequate to gift them a 2T article of clothing assuming it's not a seasonal piece they won't get to wear for 9 months. If you give them a 3T, it may be a whole other year before they can start wearing your gift.
CONVENIENCE: Gift things that can easily be mixed + matched with other things. It's just like your wardrobe - just way smaller! Whether it's a new first baby or a toddler, we've all experienced or seen how hectic it can be at times - so help make the parents lives a bit easier with convenient yet stylish pieces that will become loved staples in their child's wardrobe.
Also, layering pieces are always good for little ones since their body temperatures go up and down so quickly and also because they often need to be changed for a lot of messy reasons.
QUALITY: Baby & kids clothing gets washed more times than you can fathom. So consider purchasing fewer high quality pieces rather than a 10 pack of things that will only last a couple washes.
STYLE: Parents love getting gifts that reflect their own personal style for their littles!
