"If I Could Keep You Little" by Marianne Richmond.
Marianne Richmond brings you this sweet,
inspiring book will speak straight to a parent’s heart, exploring the
powerful feeling that every parent has, the push/pull feeling of wanting your
child to grow and savoring and holding on to every moment. If I Could Keep You Little
exemplifies Marianne Richmond’s real insights into the human spirit. This
picture book showcases Marianne’s beloved artwork, which beautifully
illustrates these complex emotions, along with her insightful prose, both of
which are sure to be cherished for generations to come. Taking the reader on a
journey of memory and expectation, the book showcases the fleeting little moments
that reveal how a child changes and grows.
While recovering from brain surgery,
Marianne Richmond created
hand-painted cards as individual thank you notes for her well-wishers, and from
that small beginning started her own greeting card company (Marianne Richmond
Studios, Inc.). Since then she has become a recognized creator of numerous
books that celebrate milestones in life, memorable journeys, and
relationships. Since her first book in 1997, Gift of An Angel, writer and artist Marianne Richmond has
touched the lives of millions over the past decade through her line of greeting
cards and gift books. Marianne lives in Minneapolis,
MN with her husband, four kids,
and their beloved Border Collie, Clay.
If I Could Keep You Little is not only a book for children, but a great book for adults as well. It is sort of a tear jerker. It is a coming of age book for kids. No longer are they the little ones who need us to tie their shoes for them, no they are the ones making their own decisions. It definitely revealshow a child changes and grows into their own little person.
