Macmillan Baby’s First Love Story (Bookish Baby, 1) Board book

An irresistible board book about love at first sight…and how babies can teach us everything we need to know about loving them―and even ourselves. Celebrate the greatest love story of all time―the one you share with your baby! Drawing clever parallels to the very best romance storylines, Baby’s First Love Story is a charming, vibrant, and endearingly tender celebration of the bond between baby and parent/caregiver. From the moment they arrive in this world and into your arms, they bring out our most loving, healthy selves. From that unforgettable first “meet-cute,” to discovering that irresistible bond, and even your first fight (because treats!), stylish and inclusive illustrations celebrate every aspect of this undeniably pure love story…from start until happily ever after.
