My Little Sweet Pea was so excited when this beautiful book arrived! She wanted to sit right down and start reading it. My daughter thought this book was written for her since we call her our Little Sweet Pea!
Each page has a lovely illustration of a mama or daddy animal with their baby. We loved looking at all the animals and naming them.
Along with the pictures is a one-sentence rhyme of what the parents adore about their child. Our favorite one is this:

This is a super cute children’s book with lots of fun illustrations. I am sure I have mentioned it in previous reviews, but I especially love children’s books that feature illustrations of animals. This book has everything from deer to cats to giraffes. The message of the book is an important one, reminding children just how much their parents love them and all the special times they share together on a daily basis.
Thank you to the publisher, Zondervan, for sending me a review copy of this book.

I’ve reviewed a lot of children’s books, and some just stand out to me as quaint, precious, and adorable. “You’re My Little Sweet Pea” is one of those books. The art makes me think of my childhood—simplistic, sweet, and innocent. The colors are light and gives the book just a pleasant presentation.
The text makes me think of my relationship with my niece and nephew—just all of the lovely things that babies are and how they brighten our world. I like that the book could apply to any relationship; ...more

Little Sweet Pea I love you. From button nose to baby coo.
Ears so dainty. Hair that swirls. Around your neck are perfect curls.
I see your smile and know your cry. Don’t worry, Sweat Pea. I am close by.
And when I hum a simple tune you understand that bedtime’s soon.
Back and forth we gently rock, in each other’s arms we lock.
And when we snuggle up at night I kiss your chee ...more

My Thoughts:
This was a cuddle up with me and let me read you a story sweet pea book! My sweet pea is seventeen now, but she cuddled up to me, and I read this book aloud to her. We agreed that it's a keeper.
