I Loved You Before You Were Born

“Just right for sharing on Grandma’s lap.” —Publishers Weekly

A loving grandmother eagerly awaits the arrival of her first grandchild—dreaming of the baby's soft sighs, sweet smells, and tiny toes.

Finally, the baby arrives and Grandma is ready with a very special message: Even before you were born, I was your grandma and I loved you.

With sturdy board book pages, soft, realistic watercolor illustrations, and lyrical text, I Loved You Before You Were Born is just right for reading on Grandma’s lap.

A perfect gift for baby showers and for Grandparents Day!
