MY THOUGHTS.....
This is such a sweet book and it is one that both parents and children will love. The bright illustrations are perfect for grabbing a little one's attention and this edition is a board book so the sturdy pages are perfect for little fingers to grab and hold. Best of all, the words express perfectly the emotions that all parents feel when they have a new baby and the rhyming words sound like a lullaby as they are being read. My granddaughter is now six but she still likes to be reminded just how special she is in our lives.
I received a complimentary copy of this book from the author. There was no obligation to write a positive review and I am voluntarily sharing my honest opinions.
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I'm an author of twenty books for children, including the best-selling Twas The Evening of Christmas, The Wonder That is You, and two popular series: Love Letters from God and Snuggle Time. Here's my little story...
Although I live in Michigan, USA, I was born and raised in a little village in northern England. Four long decades later, I would find myself living across the pond, married to a wonderful man, mum to four adult children and three daughters-in-law, and grandma to three bouncing boys and one gorgeous girl. And as if all that wasn’t blessing enough, I somehow became an author, despite giving up on my first book half way through.
And if you would have told me then, that this book would one day become a series, that I would begin a second series, and a third… I never would have believed you. The only possible explanation is that our great God is able to do immeasurably more than all I could ever ask or possibly imagine.
