Synopsis:

""If I wrote a book about you and how wonderful you are, I would write it everywhere,"" says a mother to her child. And so she does--with the branches of the trees, the sand at the beach, and even the rays of the sun. This beautiful picture book eloquently and uniquely conveys a mother's love for her child. Children will enjoy searching out the big words hidden in plain sight in the images. And parents will appreciate the message that a child makes you experience the world differently.
