Description

Winner of a Gold Parents’ Choice Award

“Reading this picture book aloud to a child, even the most jaded among us may feel again the sheer miracle of our human existence.” —Entertainment Weekly

The life-changing feeling of welcoming a new baby is woven into the everyday wonders of nature in this joyous modern classic by acclaimed author-illustrator Debra Frasier.

On the eve of your birth, word of your coming passed from animal to animal…and the marvelous news migrated worldwide.

Come across our round planet as the moon pulls, the tides rise, the rain falls, and then a baby is born. Debra Frasier’s beautiful cut-paper collages and heartfelt text showcase that this joy is a connecting force across all species in the natural world.
