Synopsis

A treasury of inspiration for every April baby...

Find out which names for your April baby have connotations of renewal, learn what is meant by a gift of a bunch of moss, bearded crepis, primroses, daisies and wood sorrel, and discover who your baby shares their birthday with - could it be Charlotte Brontë, Leonardo da Vinci or Alexander the Great?

Much-loved author Noel Streatfeild originally launched this series of month-by-month baby books in 1959. Recently rediscovered in her publisher's archives, each little book arrives complete with gorgeous illustrations, and includes:

- suggested names and games for babies born in each month

- characteristics of your baby according to their zodiac sign

- famous babies who share your baby's birthday

- quotations and rhymes to fit every aspect of babyhood

... and much more.

With a warm, lively and charming introduction by Noel Streatfeild to every volume, each adorable book in this series is a pleasure to read, and an object to treasure.
