| MSL Pointer Review:
The stillness and quietude of a rural life in this tale of a boy waiting for his sister to be born, is just beautifully evocative of a family living complete and joyful lives, with their ties to the land unbroken. |

This is one of my favorite books to read to our family. We have had it for 5 years and are about to wear it out with all of our bedtime readings. It is a great portrayal of family heritage and finding your place. We have used it as a springboard to name our favorite "place to love". It has helped my children get to know their grandparents and community better. I must also mention that the memories that it conjures up of my own childhood are priceless. |

This is, without question, the most beautiful book pertaining to childhood that I have ever read. The text conjures up an idealistic view of extended families, something that seems to be lost in today's society. The illustrations are breathtaking; Mike Wimmer has certainly captured the essence of a childhood we all wish we had. I have given this book as gifts to friends and family and without exception have been sincerely thanked for adding such a wonderful book to their library. It will add pleasure to all who own it for years and generations to come. |

I am a father of two boys. I am fully in love with parenting and with my two sons. It took me about 20 times before I could get through the book without crying with joy when Sylvie was born. One of the most touching, endearing, joyous books I have ever read. The artwork only ads to the story and completes this "must have" book. It is my new replacement for "Goodnight Moon". |

My 4 year old and I read literally hundreds of children’s books in a year, and I can think of no book that I enjoyed reading to him more than this one. I appreciated the way the author beautifully and thoughtfully portrayed the traditional family. The little boy relates in a positive and meaningful way with his parents, grandparents, and his new little sister as the story is told of the three generations living together on a farm in the mountains. |

This book will bring happy tears to the eyes of anyone who either lives or lived in New England or had a very close relationship with a grandparent. The illustrations are the best and really bring the story to life. A must read for old and young and a definite gift book even for adults! |
