A Gift for Baby

A young child is given a large gift and imagines what it might contain, but knows that none of these items can substitute for the love and attention every child really needs. The story ends with a lovely surprise. The story is presented in English with a Spanish translation by Marcela Araiza."This book offers parents an important perspective on the needs of babies and young children: what the latter want and need the most is their mothers. This simple reality, however, is overlooked by increasing numbers of parents. Perhaps this book will alert more parents to the profound value of the hands-on nurturing that mothers provide by being available to breastfeed and care for their children." - Mizin Kawasaki, Author, Mothering with Breastfeeding and Maternal Care "At last - a children's book that promotes the truths of attachment/connection parenting in a colorful, easy-to-understand way for toddlers and adults alike." - John W. Travis, MD, MPH, Co-founder, Alliance for Transforming the Lives of Children, Co-author, Wellness Workbook

When a large present awaits an infant, he wonders what it could contain, though every item he imagines cannot compare to the love his parents give him.
