| REVIEWS |
| “Sure to have a huge audience.” - Kirkus Reviews |
|
| “Perfect for one-on-one sharing, this lovely book has a universality that gives it broad appeal.” - School Library Journal |
|
| “With breathtaking paintings and a lilting, poetic text, Aston and Lewis present a book that sparkles with the beauty and grace of the subject it celebrates, a newborn child..” - Starred review, Publisher’s Weekly |
|
| “Aston’s simple poetry captures the joy and wonder of birth and the physical detail of the infant’s fragility and strength (“kissing your downy head . . . your curled fists”). Lewis’ full-page watercolor-and-marker paintings, worlds away from his usual realism, are exuberantly impressionistic in style, reminiscent of Matisse and the magic realism of Chagall.” - Booklist |
