My favorite gift to give

I'm in the period of life when friends are having children. I turn to books as a gift that is thoughtful and will always be the right size. Tell Me a Picture is always my first choice. The book challenges not only a child of any age, but parents and grandparents as well. It's like walking through a museum. Each picture allows you to consider it through whatever lens of experience you may have. I'm often told how surprised my friends are by what their children see in these pictures that we might overlook as adults. I've found this gift especially profound for friends who are artists, aficionados and admirers.
