"This is the first time
There's ever been you,
So I wonder what wonderful things
You will do."


From brave and bold to creative and clever, Emily Winfield Martin's rhythmic rhyme celebrates all the loving things that parents and families think of when they look at their children. With beautiful, lush illustrations and a stunning gatefold that opens at the end, this is a book to treasure and to enjoy reading over and over.

“Sweet but not saccharine and singsong but not forced, Martin’s text is one that will invite re-readings as it affirms parental wishes for children while admirably keeping child readers at its heart.” - Kirkus reviews

“I LOVE this book. I’ve bought this book several times for friends who have had children and now I have it for my own son. Every time I read it, it brings a tear to my eye. The sentiment behind the book is beautiful, the illustrations are lovely, and I can’t wait until my son is able to look at it with me.” - a 5-star review

Emily Winfield Martin spent a lot of time as a child wondering what she would grow up to be. She turned out to be lots of things: a painter, stitcher, cat tamer, and author and illustrator of books like Dream Animals and Day Dreamers. Emily lives among the giant fir trees of Portland, Oregon, where she wonders what other things she will be. Visit her online at emilywinfieldmartin.com.
