I loved this book as a kid. It's somehow so sad and so happy at the same time. And right now, I'm enjoying the soft sounds of my partner's voice as he reads this book to our 2-week-old daughter. He's so gentle with her, so tender. He swells with a love that is both protective and vulnerable every time he holds her. Spying on that - listening in from the next room - is one of my new favorite things to do. Witnessing their precious relationship deepens my love for them both.
