Welcoming Babies

Margy Burns Knight, Tilbury House Publishers, ME 1994

 

"Every day, everywhere, babies are born. We have many ways to show them we are glad they came into the world." So begins this beautifully illustrated book which crosses the globe showing welcoming ceremonies with babies. We sing, we kiss, we touch, we bless, we name, we greet, we promise, we announce, we hold, we celebrate, we give gifts, we honor, we play, we treasure. Children of all ages will identify with the ways babies are greeted, and will be touched by the global awareness of how precious each baby is to us all.
