About This Book
A parent would reach for this book when seeking a simple, tactile experience to share with a baby or young toddler. It is perfect for a cozy lap-read that gently introduces the concepts of family and nature. The book features a unique "book-within-a-book" format. Each sturdy page shows a parent garden animal, like a snail or a bee, while a smaller, nested book turns to reveal their baby. The simple, repetitive text, "You are my baby," reinforces the loving bond between parent and child. This interactive design is wonderful for developing fine motor skills and teaching cause-and-effect as little hands turn the smaller pages to make the match. It's a durable, delightful first book that combines gentle learning with a message of love and security.
