In this beautiful picture book, lyrical poetry pronounces a loving blessing upon Winter's Child.
Winter's Child is as individual as each snowflake, pure as each snowbank, and bright as the winter sun. Adorable watercolor paintings of snowy fields and ice-skating parties beautifully accompany the book's heartfelt blessings and promises.
Dearest child of winter,
may the magic of your season
always live within you.
May each day be
as wondrous as the newly fallen snow,
as joyful as the angels,
and as warm as the copper kettle.
May the winter wind be ever at your back,
the sun warm upon your face,
and the snow soft beneath your feet.
For you, child of winter,
are all that is good,
all that is bright,
all that is beautiful in this magical time of year.
And that makes you special, indeed.
A sweet, moving tribute to children born during the winter months,
A Blessing for Winter's Child
is a beautiful baby shower or birthday treasure for young children.
