I need to buy several copies to have on hand for baby shower gifts. It’s a beautiful book, best shared between parent and young child. The illustrations are gloriously beautiful and whimsical. The text is sentimental and full of hope and wonderings for the future. It’s full of comparisons of child and nature, opening with an acorn sleeping beneath a blanket of leaves until it begins to grow, just like the child tucked into a warm bed. The voice is that of the parent speaking directly to the child, offering a wide variety of possibilities and analogies. It makes my heart warm and fuzzy!
