| PreS—In this bouncy story, a man and woman meet, court, marry, and prepare for their new baby. Spot illustrations quickly wrap up the premarriage scenes, and a couple of spreads show the pair enjoying their time together before "Two sometimes felt blue," so they "wished for you." Half-page pictures zip through scenes of preparation for the infant's arrival. Then, when the baby joins them on their vacation adventures, "We're not just two./We're three./Yippee!" Novak's soft-edged digitally enhanced artwork perfectly portrays the merry mood of his pudgy characters. This is a great choice for cozy sharing with a beloved child.—Martha Simpson, Stratford Library Association, CT

| We all love oohing over little babies and here's a newly released picture book to ooh over as well. Matt Novak wrote and illustrated a cute book that's perfect to give to first-time parents titled A Wish for You. It's about the joy of waiting for a child to arrive and the journey of becoming a family. The book begins with two people that meet, get married and then spend some time traveling. They want children, but their wish at first isn't coming true, so they feel a little blue. Then the wife becomes pregnant, her belly expands and they begin their preparations that include buying a cartload of toys. Eventually their wish becomes a reality and the baby is born to a chorus of Oooos. The three, a family complete, sail off on new and exciting adventures together.
Though simply written, Novak obviously took great care in choosing the perfect words and the rhyme that results is fun. All the verses end with the "ooo" sound, except the very last phrases. He captures all the emotions that a pregnancy and subsequent birth brings and even manages to add a little stinky diaper humor. The illustrations have an impressionistic, fuzzy-wuzzy quality and some of the story is told through the pictures. I love how hats bring the two characters together and that they continue to wear hats throughout the book (though not during the birth). It's such a joyful book and it provides a delightful way to show a child just how much they are treasured and wished for! A perfect baby shower gift! |
