A mother describes the joyful time of her baby's birth and how it was celebrated by family and neighbors.
The joy of life and the magic of birth is captured in this heartfelt tale with poetic text and rich illustrations about a family and a community coming together to celebrate the arrival of a newborn--remembering the past, dreaming of the future, and appreciating the present.
With poetic language and magnificent, deeply moving paintings, this beautiful book preserves the sense of awe inspired when a baby is born.
When you were born you came quietly, and with eyes deep as an ocean you looked at me . . .
A new baby is born — and as family, friends, and neighbors gather to share the joy, they emerge changed. Their world is redefined as they take a moment to remember the past, imagine the future, and marvel at the tiny miracle before them. In poetry as soothing as a lullaby, Dianna Hutts Aston evokes the sense of reverence that surrounds a newborn like enfolding arms. And in radiant, Chagall-like paintings, unlike any he's published before, Coretta Scott King Awardwinning artist E. B. Lewis captures a feeling of wonder that will resonate with anyone who has gazed into the eyes of a newborn child.
