On the Day You Were Born
Welcome a special baby to the world with the beautiful, award-winning  celebration of new life by Debra Frasier (On the Day You Were Born)--and  a soft, cozy receiving blanket printed with birds and stars. This tasteful gift  set is perfect for expectant parents. The book features cut-paper illustrations  of the natural world in rich blues, bright yellows, earthy greens, and warm  reds. Lyrical text rejoices in a baby's birth: "'Welcome to the spinning world,'  the people sang, / as they washed your new, tiny hands.... / And as they held  you close / they whispered into your open, curving ear, / 'We are so glad you've  come!'" Parents, friends, and grandparents can read the gentle story aloud as  they hold baby in the lovely 30-by-40-inch, 100 percent cotton washable blanket.--Emilie Coulter--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
