The textures produced are deep and immersive yet immediate, drawing the reader into the rich visual world of the book. <em>Mediander</em> <p/>This expressive, delicate and intimate series of portraits of mothers and babies creates a chain of images of love that envelopes and nurtures young readers age two and up. <em>The Picturebook Shelf</em> <p/>Textured black-ink prints with spots of color on creamy, thick paper add to the richness of the experiences portrayed in this collection of 11 poems . . .
