This book is cute, but it tells the story of how the bear came to be. I thought it would be more of a “we are so happy god gave us you.”
Beautiful

A wonderful book that truly conveys to children how loved they are. Excellent illustrations and short enough to keep little ones engaged.

I gave this to a friend at her baby shower instead of getting her a card! Such a sweet message to someday share with her baby and board books are great for destructive babies!!

I ordered this book for my baby girl on the way. Though she isn't here yet, I took the time to read this for myself and fell in love with it. This is such a sweet story with such a heart-warming message. It touches my heart on an even deeper level, since she is our rainbow baby after suffering a difficult missed miscarriage last year. This story really really holds true for my husband and I. I can't wait to hold her in my arms and to read this to her. Highly recommend!! :)

This is such a cute book. My daughter is 10 months old and she loves to sit on my lap while I read it to her. I also got the book for my newborn nephew and my sister was so excited to receive it. It's an easy and fun little book. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone.
