My mother just handed me this book across our desk. While it’s intended for babies and toddlers, it will make even the most cynical adult melt. The book features photographs of babies from all over the world. Each picture captures the beautiful essence of each featured nation including India, Fiji, South Africa, USA, Peru, Afghanistan. Part of the proceeds will be donated to The Global Fund for Children (www.globalfundforchildren.org). The book is published by Charlesbridge ($6.95).
