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!

Was the perfect gift for a little girl

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.

LOVE these books, baby loves them. Highly recommend

This is my daughter's favorite book! Since she was a few months old, she would always get the most excited reading this book and seeing all the great illustrations. She may not understand the words fully, but it is my favorite book to read to her and for her to visually enjoy. It has such a sweet message, and we even had to order a new one after it was gifted to us since we have read it so many times.

The story and illustrations are beautiful. But the book is not well put together. Some of the pages were not cut.

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