The Wonderful Things You Will Be

This is one of those children’s books that feels timeless from the very first page. I got it for my daughter, and it quickly became a favorite in our bedtime rotation. The story is simple but deeply meaningful, a gentle reminder of a parent’s unconditional love and belief in who their child will grow to be. The illustrations are absolutely beautiful, filled with warmth and whimsy, and the message encourages kindness, courage, and individuality. It’s one of those rare books that resonates just as much with parents as it does with kids. It’s a keepsake kind of book, perfect for gifting at baby showers, birthdays, or any moment you want to celebrate love and possibility. Pro tip: write a short note inside the cover, it makes this already special book an unforgettable gift.

I have bought this book for nearly every baby shower I have attended over the last 2 years, and it is always a huge hit with the parents-to-be. The message is heartwarming, uplifting, and perfect for inspiring children to dream big and embrace who they are. The illustrations are stunning—bright, whimsical, and full of detail that keeps little ones engaged every time we read it with my own child. I love how the words are simple enough for kids to understand, yet powerful enough to leave a lasting impact. It has quickly become a bedtime favorite in our house, and I know it’s a book we’ll treasure for years to come. A truly special story every parent should have on their child’s bookshelf!

Gift for grand daughter. She & her Mommy love it. Beautiful illustrations and loving encouraging messages♥️🫶

When my nephew and his wife were “infanticipating,” they asked us to skip the traditional greeting card and instead choose a book for their soon-to-arrive baby. I instantly fell in love with the idea—and with the book I selected. It felt like the beginning of a beautiful tradition: giving stories instead of sentiments on paper. Now that baby Esther is three months old, I’ve had the joy of rocking her gently while reading this charming and empowering book aloud. Watching her tiny eyes take in the world as I read has been nothing short of magical. I added a little note inside the cover—just a simple “can’t wait to meet you” message. One day, Esther will be able to read it herself, and I hope it becomes a keepsake she treasures for years to come. There are countless lovely books out there, but from my heart, I can tell you: this one is truly special.

Was the perfect gift for a little girl

Cute story, nice illustrations. Bought for 1yr birthday, he likes sitting in Nona's lap and helping her read it to him.

This is a great book as a gift for new parents to read to their bundle of joy. I purchased this as a baby shower gift. Deducted 1 star because it was not wrapped in anything for shipment. Thankfully, the book was not damaged in transit.

Adorable story, colorful illustrations! Perfect little bedtime story your little one will ask to here over and over again!

Such a sweet book about what wonderful things 'the little one' will be and do. I got it as a baptism gift and I thought it was perfect.

The most beautiful book, it’s a very special story with beautiful illustrations. Sadly, it arrived damaged and torn without any protective covering.

The flaps at the end are so bright and catch little eyes. The message is very sweet and the book is great for some sing-song bedtime reading!

I was gifted this book, and the first time I read it, it made me cry. It’s so sweet, and the illustrations are beautiful. My second loved this book for the longest time. It’s the one she always chose to have red to her before naps and bed. This is the perfect book to gift for baby showers!

I LOVE this book. I’ve bought this book several times for friends who have had children and now I have it for my own son. Every time I read it it brings a tear to my eye. The sentiment behind the book is beautiful, the illustrations are lovely and I can’t wait until my son is able to look at it with me (he’s currently just 2 weeks old). I’d buy this book again and again for anyone expecting a baby, I find it makes a lovely gift.
