"A wonderful collection of vignettes from around the world...a global story of life and love.-- ""CanLit for Little Canadians"" An utterly charming and beautifully illustrated book that celebrates diversity in all forms while simultaneously exploring cultures around the world.-- ""Canadian Review of Materials"" Inclusivity is a hallmark of this book... A celebration of baby love as it's carried out all over the world.-- ""Kirkus"" The book makes a clear and pointed effort to promote all kinds of diversity and depict a variety of cultures in a beautiful and respectful light...the concept is very clever, and the three-dimensional cut-paper collage work is exquisitely textured and boldly colored. Barron's past awards are clearly warranted.-- ""Booklist"""
