First Birthday Gift

tracey by tracey Young Parent(June 2006) (rank 10th)

When my oldest daughter turned one, a dear friend gave her a book called "On The Day You Were Born" by Debra Frasier. She signed the inside with special birthday wishes which made the gift even more special. When I read the book for the first time I

cried (I was very emotional with it being my baby's first birthday). Since then it has not only become a book my family treasures (I still get teary when I read it), it is now THE book I give as a first birthday gift.

"On The Day You Were Born" is an enchanting story of the wonders of the Universe. With it's colorful illustrations and meaningful message, I'm sure it will become a family favorite for you too. Both my girls have their own copies and love to hear this story because it makes them feel so special to us, so important in the world ,and so very loved. What could be better than that?

I'm crying cause I just read you cried...

  I'm going to check that out.  Hayden allready has way too many toys and it would be nice to give her something with some sentimental value to it.  Great idea sounds like a lovely book.  I wish I had read this before my friends little ones first because I couldn't come up with a great idea for her present.

I was looking for something fairly inexpensive to get my son for his birthday that he could enjoy for awhile...and I think this is it! Thanks so much! :)

this is great!
some other great books are 'guess how much i love you' and 'the book of me' to be filled out as the child grows up.
can also be a sentimental gift to a child going off to school.
