Baby Book



We received this book shortly after coming home from China and it is a wonderful treasure. The book was written by a single mom who adopted from China. It is written for young children, therefore, easy to read and beautifully illustrated. I read it to Alisha a few times when we received it but she was just not interested.

In the past month, she has fallen in LOVE with this book. She asks for the "Baby Book" over and over and over. It is already getting worn, but that is the sign of a much loved book. Sometimes she will sit and look at the book herself, other times she wants us to read it to her. When we do read it, she sits quietly in our laps and listens to the story (and points out the baby). Could she really understand that this story is similar to HER story?
