Plenty of books tell parents what's in store when a new baby arrives. But this one lets a new baby in on what he or she might expect. Styled as a sweet and simple letter to a newborn, this picture book introduces Baby to several first-year splendors, such as feeling warm sunlight, watching the movements of clouds, hearing birdsong, and experiencing a loving embrace. Delectable photos of smiling and sleeping babies combine with images of other natural wonders such as flowers, leaves and pets. This ultimate letter of love is the perfect book for a new baby.

I hear a whimper. I feel a tug on my leg. Yep, my little 15-month-old wants me to read this book to her again!

Close-up pictures of smiling and happy babies alongside colorful photos of landscapes and nature make this a charming book for babies to enjoy. The words read like a letter to your child, telling him or her what is in store in this big world they are discovering day by day. It is true that babies like to look at other babies' faces, and this book keeps my daughter occupied, even when I'm not reading it aloud to her. This book is a great one to read to your baby right from the start.
