BOARD BOOK EDITION OF TONIGHT YOU ARE MY BABY IS HERE!


TONIGHT YOU ARE MY BABY is a beautifully illustrated picture book that tells the nativity story from Mary's viewpoint. Though the book was originally published in 2008, HarperCollins has released a board book edition just in time for the holiday season.


If you're looking for the perfect gift for a little one in the 2-4 age group, pick up a copy at your favorite bookstore or order it from Amazon.com.

A Christmas Book


Up until now, everything on my blog has been related to middle grade. But my dear friend and critique partner, Jeannine Norris, has a Christmas picture book, and tis the season for gift buying!
What makes this book unique is that it's told from Mary's viewpoint about the night Jesus was born.
I kiss your tiny fingers and little perfect head,
Lay you in the manger that tonight will be your bed.
The book is beautifully illustrated by Tim Ladwig, and has a refrain that children will repeat:
Tomorrow you will be king, But tonight you are my baby.
