We Can't Wait to Hold You


Overview

Hello, sweet baby. Can you please hurry up and get here already? So begins this sweet love letter to a baby-to-be. Accompanied by adorable photos, this book speaks directly to the baby, anticipating all the moments they will have together--from walking together under the same moon to kissing baby's tummy and toes, and from sharing hugs and snuggles to blooming and growing together as a family. Praise for Richard Van Camp: ★""Van Camp composes a lyrical ode to a newborn child. The book will have particular appeal for families looking for nonwhite representations of tender family moments."" --Publishers Weekly, starred review for Little You

Reviews

""Bring[s] forth quiet, or warm, or jubilant emotions! We see a mother and child, their hands embracing the baby in the mother's body. The anticipation in their faces is quiet and filled with love. I'm so pleased to see this book and happy to recommend you get it for your home, classroom, school, or public library."" --Debbie Reese ""American Indians in Children's Literature (AICL)""
