Teach her we're only as big as our dreams.
Show her that fortune is blind.
Truth is a thing she must find for herself,
precious and rare as a pearl.

A book of dreams and wishes for a newborn child, this wonderful celebration of the birth of a child is the perfect christening or 'birth day' gift

Neil Gaiman wrote Blueberry Girl for a friend who was about to become the mother of a little girl. This deeply personal wish for a daughter has been turned into a book that celebrates the glory of growing up: it celebrates all the moments yet to come, from birth to first words to first steps to first day at school and beyond. Touching, uplifting and beautiful, this is a book every new or expecting mother will treasure.

Illustrated throughout with gorgeous art by Charles Vess, whose work can also be seen in Susanna Clarke's The Ladies of Grace Adieu.
