In the beloved tradition of Robert Munsch's Love You Forever and Emily Winfield Martin's The Wonderful Things You Will Be comes a beautiful rhyming ode to babies from a New York Times bestselling author/illustrator duo--perfect for baby showers, first birthdays, and anytime babies are celebrated. In this unforgettable, squeal-filled, tear-inducing love song to babies and how quickly they grow up, author Kelly DiPucchio's heart-tugging rhyme meets the gorgeous, dimple-cheeked, multicultural babies of illustrator AG Ford. With adorable scenes from the busy life of a "little"--peekaboo, feedings, tantrums, giggles--and a final scene that reminds us how they become big kids all too soon, this is the ideal gift for any new parent and their child. ★ "a warmhearted celebration of early childhood"--Publishers Weekly, starred review A Bank Street College of Education 2018 Best Children's Book of the Year A Carnegie Library Best Book for Babies, 2018 "There's plenty of room on the shelf for this celebration of the similarities and connections among all our adorable littles."--Kirkus "will likely become the go-to baby shower gift."--School Library Journal "this tender picture book will surely resonate with the parents and families of newborns."--Booklist "Expectant families, especially those with soon-to-be older siblings, may enjoy using this sunny preview of life with the new baby to build and revel in the anticipation and excitement."--Horn Book "Have the tissues on hand for this incredibly sweet read that's equally enjoyable for parents and kids."--ReadBrightly.com
