A black mother expresses the many hopes and dreams she has for her child in this powerful picture book masterpiece by ALSC Children’s Literature Legacy Award–winning author Carole Boston Weatherford that’s perfect for gift-giving.

When you are a newborn,
I hold your hand and study your face.
I cradle you as you drift to sleep.
But I know that I will not always
hold your hand;
not the older you get.
Then, I will hold you in my heart
And hope that God holds you in his hands.
