Simon James on his new book, Baby Brains

Award-winning children's illustrator and author Simon James was so fed up with listening to his friends describing their babies as clever and advanced that he has written a new picture book called Baby Brains that wittily criticizes the pushy parent generation.

Baby Brains is the perfect antidote to parents who feel pressurized to keep up with other parents and have the brightest baby. Jenni will be finding out if parental boasting is ever ok.


Tell us your views - what's wrong with parental boasting?
