What's This Book About

Publisher Summary

Is there anything more splendid than a baby’s skin? For families of all stripes comes a sweet celebration of what makes us unique–and what holds us together. Look at you! You look so cutein your brand-new birthday suit. Just savor these bouquets of babies–cocoa-brown, cinnamon, peaches and cream. As they grow, their clever skin does too, enjoying hugs and tickles, protecting them inside and out, and making them one of a kind. Fran Manushkin’s rollicking text and Lauren Tobia’s delicious illustrations paint a breezy and irresistible picture of the human family–and how wonderful it is to be just who you are.
