Along Came You Book Review
May 25th, 2009 | 310 views | by firefly
Along Came You is a wonderful book for children ages 4 to 7 written by Karona Drummond and illustrated by Estelle Corke.
Along Came You tells a story of a mother telling her daughter what life was like before she was born and how it changed ones she was. How each day is different from before and how much better it is now.
The book is hardcover and beautifully written and illustrated. Your little one will enjoy listening to the easy going story and love seeing all of the pretty illustrations.
This children’s book really hit home when I started reading it with my daughter. It is exactly how I feel. Maybe before my daughter was born my house was decorated more adult like, more clean and I had more time to go out and do things for me. But now that my little girl is here I wouldn’t change my days for all that me time and decor. I enjoy each and every day with my Princess who makes all the hard work worth it.
About the Book: “A delightful book for kids and parents to read together that will paint a picture for children about how life changes when they are born, and gently reminds parents about how the loving sacrifices they sow for their kids only cause them to reap more joy.”
About the Author: “Karona Drummond is a certified elementary school teacher. She has taught preschoolers for over 15 years. She spent several years at Texas Woman’s University Child Development Center and several years at the University of North Texas Child Development Laboratory.”
