This was a very nice heart warming story to entertain a child about the night they were born. My daughter is 2 but I think she will appreciate this book 3+ years old.
This book is a great way to introduce your new born son, daughter, or grandchildren, to the idea of just how special they are in your lives. They will love to have in read over and over again!
My kids love this book, I am going to buy more as gifts for friends.
This book is a sweet, touching tribute to the birth of a child. We all want our children to know how special they are and how much we love them and this book does just that. My eyes got "misty" when I read the book.
This is a wonderful bedtime book. It's perfect to give to a child who is having a new baby come into their family soon. It reinforces the excitement that the older child brought to the family when they were born and eases any feelings of jealousy toward the new little one.
well worth the money. I can't wait to give it to my grandchildren
What a wonderful children's book. It talks about the worth of a child and can be read for years and years. I got it for a newborn present and am definitely going to get more to keep on hand for other new babies. Did take almost two weeks to arrive, so plan on that when you order it. Loved it.
I normally don't write reviews but was compelled after reading this precious book. The illustrations and sentiment are fabulous. Every child should feel this special! I purchased this book for my great nephew for his first birthday.
Nancy Tillman writes a wonderful book for children. Polar bears and other creatures celebrate on hearing news of their birth. A bedtime book to share with young ones over and over again.
My husband and I give this book as a gift to all of our friends who are new parents. They love it as much as we did. Truly a beautiful, celebratory work to commemorate a child's birth.
gave it to my first born grandchild with a special note inside. my daughter-in-law loved and appreciated the gift.

This is a beautiful, uplifting, and positive book with illustrations that make you smile! A celebration of each and every young life and its uniqueness. Great baby shower gift and wonderful book to read to young children.
This book is full of lovely pictures and sentiments about how all creation celebrated on the night YOU --whoever is experiencing the book-- were born. This book is great for children's self-esteem because it demonstrates how the creatures, and even the moon and the wind, were delighted about this new child. It doesn't cross the line of being too sugary-sweet, however. I have given this book at baby showers but also when the child is old enough to hold the book by him/herself. Children tend to recite favorite storybooks while looking at the pages, even before having the ability to read every word, and this one brings special pleasure since the characters are so happy about him/her joining their world, too. The illustrations depict the joy, like the polar bears dancing with glee on the cover, but the artwork seems steady and substantial enough to anchor the heady emotion while maintaining aesthetic quality. As a gift it is well-received, and I think this book will be a keepsake into adulthood. Overstock.com shipped it to the recipient's address that I provided in fine shape and in a timely manner. I am pleased!
This is a beautiful, beautiful book. I sent it to my daughter-in-law and son who are expecting their first baby. They are both physicians, so I wondered what, if anything, such a touching story would do for them. My son called me to say when he arrived home that evening, my daughter-in-law had just finished reading the book and had tears in her eyes. It tugged at my heart too when I first read it. The illustrations are enchanting and the story wonderful. I will purchase this as a baby gift again and again. So very much recommend.
I bought this book for a baby shower having no real idea what I was getting. It is such an amazing book, it makes every child that reads it understand how unique and wonderful they are. It will forever be my baby shower gift! Highly Recommended!
Great book that makes the night they were born just magical!
What a sweet book--gave as a gift to a friend after the birth of her preemie son--beautiful and very appropriate!
