May you, my baby, sleep softly at night, and when dawn lights the world, may you wake up to birdsong. Part poem, part lullaby, this gentle story celebrates a baby’s wonder at our beautiful world. From Australia’s favorite picture-book creator, Alison Lester, comes a timeless book to share and to treasure.
This book has nice wishes for a baby. I like that it focuses on beautiful things in the world. Sometimes we forget to look at the nice things around us and this book reminds us of those.
Alison Lester was Australia’s first Children’s Laureate, from 2011 to 2013. She has been the recipient of the Children’s Book of the Year: Picture Book, and the Dromkeen Medal. Her books include Imagine, Noni the Pony, and Magic Beach.
