You are the greatest gift to those who love you - and watching you blossom is a joy to behold.
In delightfully whimsical illustrations, acclaimed artist Woodleigh Marx Hubbard celebrates the promise and goodness inside each one of us.
"Hubbard asks the child to celebrate his or her special
qualities...The illustrations are exuberant, creative, and sometimes
whimsical.... The vividly colored art always combines a childlike simplicity
of line with sophisticated collage technique that bring texture, depth, and
complexity of design to the pictures. A book that offers much to look at and
something to think about."
Booklist
"Hubbard sends a cheerily illustrated book
of affirmations to loved ones..The text then catalogues such positive
qualities as, "You walk with Confidence,".. making the volume an appropriate
present for just about any occasion. Hubbard's jazzy compositions are the
real draw. With the crisp-lined look of cut-paper collage, they feature
contrasting hues and bold sharply drawn patterns that nearly vibrate off the
page."
Publisher's Weekly Forecast
"Comfortable All That You Are reassures both boys and
girls how special they are. Cheers to author/illustrator Woodleigh Marx
Hubbard."
