Reviews:
"A great strength of this book is that it is nonspecific and inclusive enough to encompass all new babies—arriving through birth, fostering, or adoption—and it does not specify gender…The whole message is one of love, welcome, and completion now that the young one has joined the family. …It is a book of thankfulness and hope that would make a wonderful addition to the preschool collection in a library. Highly recommended." -- Resource Links
