Illustrated by David Soman. 32 p., Marshall Cavendish, 1999.
A little girl asks her mama to tell her about her pregnancy. Mama describes all the seasons of waiting for her daughter's birth as the two watch fireflies and walk home, and the girl goes to bed. As Mama tucks her daughter in, she tells her that it wasn't hard to wait because it was she that she was waiting for. Children will feel secure in the sense of closeness between mother and daughter.
Ages: 3-5
