Customer Testimonials

Excellent children’s book which teaches little kids the rich tropical heritage of Jamaica. My godson has been completely mesmerised since he got this book. He wants it read to him every night and won’t travel without it! It’s so important to expose kids to their culture early! 10/10!!

    Book Review

A beautifully written children's book. Grandma what's that is an engaging book that allows you to go on the journey with the nine mile babies. It keeps you intrigued to want to know more as you read. I as an adult absolutely loved it, looking forward to many more books from this author. 😊

    Book Review

This is a charming story of exploration. The little ones are inquiring about the things they see along their journey with their grandma. It’s entertaining and easy for the children to follow. Great characters and pictures. I bought two copies for each of my nephews and they loved it!

  • A smiling young child with curly blonde hair sits on a couch next to the Nine Mile Babies black plush toy doll named Cheeks, who is dressed in a white outfit and cap. This picture highlights Nine Mile Babies' dedication to providing Black educational picture books and soft black toys for boys.
