Starting off a flurry of Mother’s Day titles is one of Cheryl Orsini’s always beautiful books – this one a board book in the Baby’s First series that will delight any first time mums of your acquaintance.
One of The Kid’s friends, a few years older, is expecting her first baby now and this would be a super gift to put in the baby shower bundle I think.
It’s simple enough in it’s context – do look at the sample pages – and the real focus is on the gorgeous illos each accompanied by what is essentially a caption. They capture the essence of spending time with mums and grandmothers on Mother’s Day and, while we are aware [only too well sadly] that it’s not always possible to do so, the love that endures is still a valuable part of these special days.
It may sound trite but I do love a pretty book and Cheryl’s never fail to delight me. I know others feel the same way. I can’t look at them, without instantly feeling happier. A lovely gift for any new mum&bub with a 5 👶👶👶👶👶rating
