On the night you were born,
the moon shone with such wonder
that the stars peeked in
to see you
and the night wind whispered,
'Life will never be the same.'

On the Night You Were Born by Nancy Tillman
So begins the enchanting tale On the Night You Were Born. Geese fly home
to celebrate. Polar bears dance. The whole world comes alive with thanksgiving.
Before the tale ends children will be wiggling their toes and whispering
their names in joyous celebration of their own unique wonder.
The 411 by Maria:
A stunning reminder of how unique and wonderful we all are, in our very own way.
On The Night You Were Born by Nancy Tillman is a poetic, masterpiece of how unique everyone is and how the universe loves you even when you forget just how amazing you are.
The colorful pages create a dreamy, beautiful world around the loving words that any parent feels for a child but also to everyone who lacks self esteem.
When I read this to my children, I had to force my voice not to quiver, as the words expressed my deep, undying love for them.
The book I received also had a CD containing the story set to enchanting piano music adding to the beauty of the story.
Look for this book and more on my Holiday Gift Guide.
Disclaimer: I received a complimentary product for my honest opinion.
This would be a great book to read to my Grandchildren, thank you for the great reveiw
