""If I wrote a book about you and how wonderful you are, I would write it everywhere,"" says a mother to her child. And so she does. She writes that her child is ""captivating"" in the branches of the trees, and ""perfect"" in sand at the beach, and ""strong"" with the vegetables growing in the garden. Using noodles and pies, telephone wires and raindrops and even the rays of the sun, this beautiful picture book eloquently and uniquely conveys a mother's love for her child through words illustrated by everyday objects.
