Welcome to the World

Rate this book
Welcome To The World is a delightful book celebrating the arrival of a new baby. The story follows a charming little elephant, on a colourful journey, discovering all the wonders the world has to offer. Beautifully illustrated in full colour this book is hardback with cheerful end papers. With space for you to write a personal message in the front of this book, it is a wonderful keepsake and makes the perfect gift for baby showers and newborn presents. Another title by from you to me 'You're The Biggest' complements this title and makes the perfect gift for the older sibling who has just become the biggest.

This is a fun and delightful book celebrating the arrival of a new baby. The story follows an adorable little elephant on a journey of discovering all the new, and beautiful wonders of the world. Colors, animals places. Beautifully illustrated in full color with a space in the front of the book to write a personal message. It’s a wonderful keepsake book that would make a perfect gift for a baby shower.

This is a delightful, adorably illustrated children's book about what the world holds in store for newborns. The book is perfect for a baby gift, which is how I came to purchase it.

This little book is absolutely beautiful. I have bought 3 over the last few years for New Baby's. The sentiment is lovely and makes a really nice gift .

This book arrived yesterday. It looks nice and the cover is lovely. It is somewhat small in comparison to other hardback books, but I guess for the price it's good enough. I was surprised by how little text there is in this book though. About 130 words, or 12 sentences.

I was expecting a lot more from this book. The illustrations are ok, nothing dreamy or spectacular, just ok. In terms of an emotional message, it didn't deliver what I was expecting either.

It's an ok book, but not memorable and not exceptional or original, hence 3 stars. There are better ones out there to celebrate the arrival of a new baby.

I see a lot of picture books as I'm a librarian and the one I can definitely recommend is one called My Baby You Will Always Be by Anna Maledon. It's another book that arrived yesterday, not for the library, but because I need a book for a baby shower for my new granddaughter. It's a new book, that just came out but I have a feeling it's going to become a classic. It has all of the ingredients of a classic and in my 40 years as a children's librarian, I've seen it all.
