Customer Reviews

Wonderful gift for new parents.

This book captures the unique qualities of a newborn baby. A fleeting moment that most new parents don't appreciate because they are too exhausted! It makes me want to have another baby just to experience those first few days and have a chance to take some pictures of my own.

Fantastic and tastefully documented newborn infant photos

Fantastic black and white photography of newborn infants ranging from 1 to 22 days old. The photographs are tastefully done and show the beauty of a newborn. Rather than bore the reader with words, Schatz allows the story to be told in photos. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in newborns and to all expecting or new parents.
