Reviews
This ""aw""-inspiring British import demonstrates that as a baby grows, so does the love. Repeating the titular word, Wordsworth follows the development of a young tot, beginning as the tiny baby snuggles in a caregiver's arms: ""Today you're a little bit bigger.There's more of you to love!"" The baby grows older and lies under a mobile, reaching for toys (""Today you're a little bit louder.I love hearing your voice!""). Soon the child is sitting up and grabbing at a most displeased household cat: ""Today you're a little bit curiouser.So keen to make friends!"" Before we know it, the youngster's an inquisitive toddler, carefully examining a snail in the garden: ""Today you're a little bit braver.Never stop exploring!"" Breezy text homes in on important milestones-like taking those first independent steps-as well as moments that are just plain sweet and joyful, like a giggly bathtime. Wordsworth folds a little bit of extra love into his words, while Wright's gentle pastels and patterned clothing, blankets, and dotted green landscapes add texture to this warm tale that's ideal for new parents. The adult has tan skin, a slightly darker shade than the baby's. A snuggle-worthy read-aloud. * Kirkus Reviews *
