You Are My Cupcake & We Belong Together

Just in time for Valentine’s Day come two new board books from Joyce Wan for the littlest sweetheart in your life. Both books are perfect for snuggling before naptime and lots of cuddles and squeezes.

We Belong Together celebrates those perfect matches we find in the world around us, from peanut butter and jelly to hot chocolate and marshmallows and chocolate cookies and milk, from pencil and paper to a fork and a spoon. “Because some things are just better together,” says the back.

You Are My Cupcakeis an adorable homage to all the sweet silly names moms call their little ones; sweet pea, gumdrop, cutie pie, pumpkin. The last page reads, “I could just eat you up!” Super cute and sweet.

Both books are high-quality, and will stand up to multiple rereadings. The drawings are oversized and enticing, with happy faces that will entice your baby to smile back. Smooth and shiny textures will draw chubby toddler fingers to the page. Perfect for toddlers, their mommies, and more, these sweet, happy books are a great addition to any library.

Elizabeth has 3 teens so she rarely reads board books anymore. She read these two to her 14-year-old daughter who said, “That was weird,” but agreed the books are super cute. Learn more at her blog Planet Nomad.
