An elderly fairy gives new babies bellybuttons in this storybook.

So beautiful!

I just met the author, Bobbie Hinman, and the illustrator, Mark Wayne Adams, at a local book festival. They both were so kind and interesting to speak with! I purchased the book for my unborn child. The book's colors are so bright. The illustrations are so captivating. The story is imaginative. I enjoyed my purchase so much, I went back and bought another one for my best friend's upcoming baby shower. Both books will be enjoyed and treasured for a very long time to come.
