Look Listen Read I AM: Why Two Little Words Mean So Much by Dr. Wayne Dyer "I am the part of you that shares and gives from your heart. I am the inspiration behind your music, sports, and art." No matter your faith or beliefs, Dr. Wayne Dyer's newest children's book is a beautiful reminder of our connection to God and all living things. The book ends with an exercise on turning "I am" statements from negatives to positive to help the light inside of them grow and shine. ($10 at Amazon) The Other Baby Book: A Natural Approach to Baby's First Year by Megan McGrory Massaro & Miriam J. Katz Megan and Miriam tell birth and baby raising stories you'd hear among your green mommy group at the park or coffee shop. You know the group that doesn't constantly ask, "Well, what does the doctor say?" These moms cover the basics, but they give you plenty of space to listen to your instincts... something that has been marketed out of motherhood. The inspiring and been-there-done-that tone makes The Other Baby Book an ideal gift for a new or expecting mom. ($9 at Amazon) 26
