Description
A picture book celebration of love by the Newbery Medal-winning author, Patricia MacLachlan, with luminous paintings by Mike Wimmer. Within the sanctuary of a loving family, baby Eli is born and, as he grows, learns to cherish the people and places around him, eventually passing on what he has discovered to his new baby sister, Sylvie: "All the places to love are here . . . no matter where you may live." This stunning picture book is the perfect gift for parents of a new baby. "This loving book will be something to treasure."' -Booklist "The quiet narrative is so intensely felt it commands attention. . . . a lyrical celebration." -Kirkus Reviews
