This book has beautiful illustrations, along with a lullaby flow that's wonderful for babies as well as older kids who are interested in the story of their birth. The book connects different parts of nature to the night of the child's birth. Just beautifully created. My 6yr old loves it and it soothes my 5mon old baby when I use it as her bedtime story. It also puts emphasis on the idea that there is no one else in this world exactly like them, making them feel as special as they are. Nancy Tillman also has a book named "It's time to sleep, my love". Similar illustations and same poetic flow make it a must-have as well.
I purchased this book for my 1 1/2 year old little girl. After reading this story to her and my older children listening in, I decided to buy one for each of my children. Even though my other children are 15, 12 and 12 I thought this would be an awesome gift to give them for Christmas. This is a book that they can pass down to their own children some day so now each have their own copy to do so. Beautiful story about love for a child!!!!
This is a great book for small children. It has a sweet, endearing story with wonderful illustrations. It should be a classic and its author is outstanding. Nancy Tillman is an amazing author who makes you tear up. She has written many other great bookd as well. Check them all out, you wont be disappointed!!
This book was purchased as a baby shower gift for first time parents. It is the perfect gift to read to your child so that he knows just how much he is loved.
