Book Reviews of On the Day You Were Born: Book and Musical CD
Book Review: "Birthdays Are Just the Beginning.....Enjoy the Celebration!"
Summary: 5 Stars
Wherever you are in the realm of life's birthdays, this book will serve to validate you. If you are a senior, a teenager, a toddler, or a middle aged person, you can read this to your children and tell them that this special book can take you back to the time when you were born. Each of us may need to take that trip back in time. Enjoy the journey!
As a baby, you were welcomed into the universe, whether or not anyone told you that; so, if you need to hear it again, remember "the universe welcomes you into life."
For some of us, the welcoming group may have been small; for others the group was large. Read this to your children so that they may take that trip back in time and once more feel the welcoming spirit of those gathered to celebrate your birth, and then you can go on to celebrate each of their birthdays.
They say that the author/illustrator's pictures are like those of the artist Matisse, simple drawings and bold colors, like the colors in a box of crayons. Grab some large sheets of paper and draw some bold Matisse-like pictures with your children......... And have a "Happy Birthday!"

Welcome a special baby to the world with the beautiful, award-winning celebration of new life by Debra Frasier (On the Day You Were Born)--and a soft, cozy receiving blanket printed with birds and stars. This tasteful gift set is perfect for expectant parents. The book features cut-paper illustrations of the natural world in rich blues, bright yellows, earthy greens, and warm reds. Lyrical text rejoices in a baby's birth: "'Welcome to the spinning world,' the people sang, / as they washed your new, tiny hands.... / And as they held you close / they whispered into your open, curving ear, / 'We are so glad you've come!'" Parents, friends, and grandparents can read the gentle story aloud as they hold baby in the lovely 30-by-40-inch, 100 percent cotton washable blanket. --Emilie Coulter
