I got a review copy of If I Could Keep You Little... at a trade show. I cried the first time I read it. It is right up there with books like You Are My I Love You and Someday as my favorite bedtime books to read to my kids on special occasions (the night before a birthday, or the night before a first day of school, for example). When I had a few moms and kids over for a playdate recently, I passed this book around and, shortly afterwards, a box of tissues. "Don't do this to me again!" one mom said. Seriously, it is a very sentimental book that highlights the fleeting moments of childhood in a sweet but un-cheesy way. It is beautifully illustrated and the verses rhyme, too, so your child will enjoy it too. Can't recommend it highly enough as a baby shower gift or a new baby gift. Check it out at Amazon.com (where it costs just $8.79, regularly $16) to take a peek inside.
