I wish for you, my little one...
What do you wish for your child? Do you wish for them to be kind? To be strong? To be proud of who they are?
From courageous lions and wise owls to playful dolphins and wolves finding their voices, this timeless and lushly illustrated book explores the values we can draw from the wondrous and inspiring natural world around us.
Gentle and affirming, the lyrical text takes readers through the qualities we wish to instill in our children, helping them grow into resilient, assured, and happy individuals. I Wish for You is both a celebration of nature and the importance of self-esteem, self-respect, empathy, and community.
A book meant to be treasured, I Wish for You is the perfect gift for baby showers, Mother's Day, Father's Day, graduations, and anytime you wish to share a lasting keepsake and a gift of inspiration.
"What do you wish for your child? Do you wish for them to be kind? To be strong? To be courageous? I Wish for You explores the characteristics and values we hope our children will adopt, and how they can be learned from the wondrous creatures on this planet. From the courage of a lion to the strength of a bear to the kindness of a panda, the natural world has so much to show and teach us. In this creatively written and beautifully illustrated book, David Wax and Brett Blumenthal communicate the qualities we all wish for our children to embody to grow up to be strong, secure and happy individuals."--Back cover.
