Gabrielle Union says 2-year-old Kaavia's cheeky looks help set boundaries, inspired new kids book 'Shady Baby'

Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade's 2-year-old daughter Kaavia James, the precocious toddler who has earned the nickname "Shady Baby," was born with a side-eye.
"Literally from birth. And then her personality has been consistent," Union tells USA TODAY. "That’s how 'Shady Baby' started because she came out the womb looking like an older person who was over it at all times."
Many people can relate. Kaavia has racked up an impressive 1.7 million Instagram followers with her "big personality" and signature shade, but her parents learned that her "looks" aren't necessarily a bad thing. Union says it's Kaavia's way of "reacting to things she finds less than stellar" and defining "boundaries," which is the inspiration for their new children's book, "Shady Baby."
