Baby's Song will be out next month and it's bee-ooo-ti-ful! I just got my copies and am happy to see this baby delivered!

The amazing artist is Deborah Perez-Stable and this is our second book together for Abingdon Press. The book description reads:
A picture book in lyrical rhyme, Baby's Song follows the seasons in a year of baby's life. Mother and child share the joys that each season has to offer and grow in their awareness of the blessings God has given them throughout the year. The tender text is coupled with warm and personable illustrations, and is sure to be enjoyed over and over again for lap-time reading.

Art @ Deborah Perez-Stable 2008
Baby, see the winter snow
Swirling all around,
Covering the house and gate,
Blanketing the ground.
Roll a snowball! Make a snowman!
Pat! Pat! Pat!
God has made the lacy snow
That decorates your hat.
