Charming book August 11, 2008
I have purchased this book several times for new parents and they have all loved it. The pictures are lovely and the words flow nicely. Very nice book to read aloud, starting when the baby can sit on your lap and listen. I predict you will love it if you buy it!
Such a Treasure!! August 8, 2008
This book was given to me as a baby shower gift. Many nights before my daughter was born, I would sit in the nursery and read aloud "On the Night You Were Born". This book was one of the most important items packed in my hospital bag and the night our Ava Claire was born, my husband and I read it to her for the first time with tears streaming down our checks. Our Baby is now 7 months old and it still gives me chills. We plan to make it a tradition to read this book at bedtime on each birthday. I also have purchased several books to give to friends since it is such a wonderful gift that I will ALWAYS cherish!
The most special book ever! July 30, 2008
This book is absolutely beautiful! It made both my husband and I cry (that doesn't happen often!). The words spoke to me as a mommy and the way I feel about my sweet baby. It also has beautiful illustrations. The dancing polar bears are my fave! You have to get this book!!
A great book for any child to have! July 25, 2008
I first picked up this book at a book fair at a school I was working at recently. The beautiful artwork on the cover was what drew me in. As I opened the book and began to read I was very impressed with how beautiful the pages' illuistrations were. Even more beautiful were the poetic words the author uses to describe how one's name came to be "on the night you were born". I think that any child would love to hear this story before bedtime or even just cuddling with their parents. It makes the child feel special in knowing that this beautiful story describes how they came to be. As an artist I can really appreciate the illustrations that are so vibrantly painted upon each page. I would recommend this book from birth to upper elementary. It would be a great gift for new parents to read to their new child.
great for baby's bookshelf June 28, 2008
Ive received several baby shower invites over the last couple of years that ask for a "book for the bab's bookshelf". I love this book because it has great pictures and tells the child that on the night he/she was born the whole world celebrated. When the child is a little older and you read them the story, it even asks you to "wiggle your toes" and other small directions that are fun because the book becomes interactive. Fun book :)
