This book is a classic, originally published in 1972, under the title  Baby.  It is a charming book, very gentle and has lovely drawings.  It was re-released in 2002, and should be an essential part of every midwife's library, and every family expecting a baby.
A charming book that allows you to personalize books for that very special person. Check the home page to learn more about these wonderful books, and the table of contents for a list of all of the books available that can be personalized.
