On the Night Before You Turn One

The perfect gift to share and celebrate, this touching picture book celebrates growth and fondly looks back on the first year of life.

On the night before you turn one
I’ll rock you in our chair
And smell the last of the baby smell
That tiptoes through your hair.

On the night before her infant’s first birthday, a mother reflects on the beautiful journey they’ve shared—from birth to the eve of turning one. She treasures one last night of “babyhood” while dreaming of milestones yet to come.

With sweet illustrations by Gregorio De Lauretis of the bestselling Made for Me and rhyming text from Kristie Graves, On the Night Before You Turn One captures the joy, nostalgia, and love that mark a child’s first year. This touching keepsake is the perfect first birthday gift—for little ones, and for the parents who feel that time is moving too fast.
