"I absolutely LOVE You're Here! It's the sweetest board book I've ever seen. This wonderful, beautiful book so captures the excitement and love surrounding the birth of a child. And the illustrations are super cute." — Jana Patterson

"The story is simple and sweet, and expresses beautifully the wonder and love and happiness of a new baby.  It would make a perfect gift for any family with a newborn.  If you are a parent, it will make you a little teary, thinking about when you first met your babies  But the reason I love this book the most is the art.  Julie Rowan-Zoch's sweet drawings are simply perfect for this story.  The family, depicted as elephants, are just darling.  The baby's rosy cheeks, delightful expressions and infant antics are picture perfect.  Julie's art adds an extra layer of warmth and emotion to this little treasure of a book." — Susanna Leonard Hill

"This exuberant ode to a baby’s accomplishments during its first year kicks off the Year-by-Year Books series. “So much, much will happen/ in 12 months to come!/ You’ll wriggle and smile/ and suck your wee thumb,” writes Oceanak beside newcomer Rowan-Zoch’s delicately colored sketch of a baby elephant. Eating, speaking first words, and crawling are other highlighted milestones. Up to age 1." — Publisher's Weekly
