he First Days: A High-Contrast Book for Parents and Babies is a book I wish I had knew about when I had Suzzane and Charlie. Even though Suzzie is in Heaven and Charlie says he isn’t having children I sat down to read this parenting book and learned so much through the advice the Author shared with us.
The art in the book is so calming and full of love I couldn’t wait to share he First Days: A High-Contrast Book for Parents and Babies with my best friend. Another friend of mine Tara will have her first grandchild soon as he daughter is pregnant and a single mom.
I plan on giving both Tara and her daughter a copy of The First Days: A High-Contrast Book for Parents and Babies at there baby shower. Tara’s daughter is only 19 and a single mom I know she is going to be scared and overwhelmed at times but this book is going to remind her she will be okay.
The First Days: A High -Contrast Book for Parents and Babies is for new parents but I can see parents of all ages learning from the advice the Author shares with us. The illustrations would look wonderful in a nursery.
I hope you take the time to read this new book and that you check out the Author as well Please share the book with any new parents you know. I believe a copy of The First Days: A High -Contrast Book for Parents and Babies should be in all Doctors offices. Counselors and Church Offices.
