Book Reviews of On the Night You Were Born
Book Review: A BEAUTIFUL MESSAGE EVERYONE NEEDS TO HEAR
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is for any parent who's head over heels in love with their little blessing! The message in this book is great. It reminds your child that they are a beautiful, wonderful, unique gift from God and that there never was and there never will be another child like them.
My son received this as a gift for his 2nd birthday and we both LOVE it! It will be my "go to" book for any baby shower from now on! My son likes pointing out the different animals in the pictures and the loving words always bring a tear to my eye. In fact, I love it so much, I just bought the baby book The Wonder of You by the same author for my 6 month old.
Book Review: Remind a child how special they are
Summary: 5 Stars
I borrowed this book for my daughter when she was five. She memorized all the words in 2 days. She especially likes the "hidden words" not found directly in the text but in the pictures. It's an ode to unconditional love however that may come, and a reminder that there's something/someone bigger and greater who adores us and dances just because we're ourselves.
As an aside, this book is great for children in their not so special moments or phases, or those from unconventional families, hurting families, even temporary care. It's absence of familial references reminds every child that there's still someone out there who cares...
Book Review: Heartwarming
Summary: 5 Stars
I was given this book as a gift at my baby shower...and after the first few lines I couldn't stop crying!! This book is so special for anyone preparing to welcome a new child into their lives or anyone with children in general. Kids need this book read to them!!! A week after my daughter was born I re-read this book and, yet again, the tears went flowing...still can't really read it to this day without choking up. As a new mom it's amazing to read Tillman's words and remember the miracle of and moments surrounding your child's birth. I now give this book as a gift to everyone I know who is expecting! love love love love love this book. buy it!!Book Review: Nancy Tillman - Always a winner
Summary: 5 Stars
If it's a Nancy Tillman Book you can rest assured the story will be lovely, the pictures will be beautiful, and the child will be pleased. My grandchildren love her books and even when they outgrow the stories they still treasure the books. What better compliment can one give an author? She has provided my 4 grandgirls hours of pleasure, my 2 daughters are thrilled their children love/be read to, and I am a hero everytime I make a gift of a Nancy Tillman book.
Thank you Nancy Tillman. You are truely appreciated by the 7 women in this family. From ages 3 to 57, each of your books are always the pièce de résistance.
Book Review: A New Classic
Summary: 5 Stars
I adore this book. It has a wonderfully loving and positive message (you are the one and only ever you) accompanied by beautiful illustrations. I've given it to several new mothers over the past couple of years and read my own copy to my grandchildren often. In my very humble opinion, this one has already achieved classic status and will grace nurseries for generations to come.
"For never before in story or rhyme
(not even once upon a time)
has the world ever known a you, my friend,
and it never will, not ever again..."
Highly, highly recommended.
