We Needed a You

When a child enters your life, everything changes. The whole world instantly becomes brighter, bigger, and fuller in every way, just because they’re in it.

This is an opportunity to let a little one know how much they matter, and how nothing has quite been the same since they arrived.

Written by award-winning children’s book author M.H. Clark (from books such as You Belong Here, Everywhere, Still, and Tiny, Perfect Things), each page of this poetic book is a chance to tell a child how deeply loved they are.

Flip through the colourful illustrations at bedtime to give a child a glimpse of the world before they arrived — one that was perfectly pleasant but missing a certain someone. Then let that special child know that their presence makes ordinary moments fuller and more complete in countless, extraordinary ways.
