Customer Reviews

A beautiful book, story, and message.

This is such a wonderful story. I love the meaning behind it, and all that it can inspire. The premise of the story is such a jumping off point for more creative conversations with your child(ren). Would make an excellent baby shower/birthday gift for any aged child! Love it!

Because You Are My Baby

I gave this book as a gift to a new baby to share with his two-year old sister. The little girl wanted it read over and over and adored the illustrations. Because You Are My Baby was such a huge success, I will now add it to my list of books to give to new babies. E. Suzanne

Go Mom!

What I loved most about this beautifully written and illustrated book is the fact that the mother is a woman who seeks adventure and partakes in non-traditional female activities, while still including her child. Book shelves everywhere need more tales about women who inspire their children through love and actions!

Beautiful sentiment, with gorgeous illustration!

"Because You Are My Baby" is the perfect book for any child. My son adores this book! The writing is fresh, intelligent and fun. The illustrations are fabulous! It is sure to become a classic. We are looking forward to the next Sherry North book!!!

A warm and captivating expression of parental love!

Sherry North's book is a delight! It expresses a parent's love for a baby using interesting and contemporary ideas--and succeeds in being warm and real without seeming at all saccharine! Both the prose and the accompanying illustrations are very appealing, both to adults and to their children! Dr. Lynn Wolf
