“On the night you were born, the moon smiled with such wonder that the stars peeked in to see you and the night wind whispered, life will never be the same.”
Nancy Tillman, a former advertising agency owner who resides in Tualatin, near Portland, Oregon, has applied her artistic skills to create a beautiful children’s book.
On the Night You Were Born is a perfect book for bedtime filled with soft musical lyrics and delightfully playful, rich illustrations. One of the book’s finest features are the interactive instructions inserted throughout the book that involve the child in the storytelling.
As polar bears dance and geese fly home, children are asked to whisper their names and wiggle their toes in celebration of themselves. Gems of kind acceptance and positive messages encourage children to feel good about themselves, and to feel loved. This is a wonderful book for helping to instill personal worth in children.
This book can bring tears to your eyes. It celebrates the individuality and uniqueness God gives to every human being, each and every baby born everywhere, in such a gentle and beautiful way. It's impossible to fully explain to your children how much you love them, but this book articulates that message as you read. There is a special softness about it that makes it a great, unique book.
