One very determined word

Baby is discovering speech, but for now her vocabulary begins and ends with “no”—a small word that complicates breakfast, sharing, and diaper changes across the family. The book turns familiar toddler negotiations into a picture-book premise about growing independence, then gives Baby a chance to try a new word when someone offers a kiss. It balances the comic repetition of a child’s favorite response with the everyday joys and challenges of toddlerhood. This is a follow-up to *The Baby Who Stayed Awake Forever*.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • A picture-book choice for children ages 4–8.
  • For families sharing stories about toddlers, new words, and growing independence.
  • Could make a fitting baby-shower gift, as suggested by the publisher.

Book overview

Fueled by the only word she knows--NO!--Baby is learning how to talk while stirring chaos through the entire family. This hilarious follow-up to The Baby Who Stayed Awake Forever is the perfect baby shower gift for parents and older siblings of bossy babies and temperamental toddlers.

Breakfast? NO! Sharing? NO! Clean diaper? NO! Baby is a good talker but she only knows ONE word, and she's going to use it--a lot!

But when Baby is asked a very special question--"Do you need a kiss?"--it's finally time to learn a new word: YES.

Celebrate the joys and challenges of toddlerhood and independence with this funny and heartwarming picture book. Parents and older siblings will love laughing along together as they try to get their own ferociously fussy little one to say anything . . . anything . . . but NO!
