Creating Birchy's Books
Hello! I’m Courtney – creator of Birchy’s Books and proud mum to two beautiful boys. We live in sunny North Queensland, Australia.
In 2021, my afternoons were spent in the backyard with my baby, navigating the chaos that is Witching Hour (if you know, YOU KNOW!). During those long months, two things became our saving grace: reading picture books and watering the garden.
…and that’s how Birchy’s Books and my first children’s story – My Mum Wets Her Plants, was born – from an idea sparked by moments in my first year of motherhood.
The Power of a Picture Book
Inspired by my kids, you will find a growing collection of picture books to read with your own little ones and keepsakes (coming soon!) that make a thoughtful gift for a growing family.
Since becoming a mum, I’ve realised the power of the humble picture book! There are children’s books out there that address pretty much every topic you can think of, which I’ve found to be hugely helpful when navigating parenting.
From toilet training to eating fruits and vegetables – There’s a Book For That – Find a picture book to suit your needs on our blog.
Thanks for visiting!

Curating Confidence, One Page At a Time
Krystal Wade self-published a children’s book titled Mabel’s Magical Meal, a picture book that teaches young children about colours. I personally resonated with Krystal’s article in so many ways – in particular with how she has slowly found the confidence to step out of her comfort zone – spoiler alert: all through becoming a mum and self-publishing.
