Summary
Where does a mother's love come from？ Ashley Huffstutler shows us it comes directly from the heart of God。 When I Hold You is a gentle and celebratory poem that draws the comparison between a mother's tender love for her children and God's nurturing love for us。
A perfect gift for any new or existing mother， When I Hold You captures the universal experience of the mother-child bond。 As young readers， ages 0-4， listen to the rhyme and see the diverse illustrations， they will better understand how God reveals His love to us through our relationships with one another。 With Scriptures woven throughout every image， both mother and child will be encouraged to worship the God whose love lasts forever！

I received an ARC in exchange for a fair reviewBeautifully illustrated。 A wonderful title to gift to new mothers and to read with your little one when they arrive。 This is God-centered so if that's not your jam， you most likely will not be a fan of this title。 I will say that for those who are Christians， this would be a welcome title。 Each page has the text and then a bible verse。 I am most impressed with how sweet and warm the illustrations feel。 The text is typical of most early level picture I received an ARC in exchange for a fair reviewBeautifully illustrated。 A wonderful title to gift to new mothers and to read with your little one when they arrive。 This is God-centered so if that's not your jam， you most likely will not be a fan of this title。 I will say that for those who are Christians， this would be a welcome title。 Each page has the text and then a bible verse。 I am most impressed with how sweet and warm the illustrations feel。 The text is typical of most early level picture books and has just one sentence per page。 。。。more

So tender！ This is a beautiful book perfect for the mother-to-be。 On each two-page spread， a mother holds her baby or small children close to her and a verse from the Bible swirls across the page。 It seems that the translation quoted is included after the verse if it is not KJV。 There are many races and ethnicities represented and each is drawn beautifully。 It is hard to tell， however， if this book is meant as a gift for new mothers， or a picture book for children。 I suppose it could be both，as So tender！ This is a beautiful book perfect for the mother-to-be。 On each two-page spread， a mother holds her baby or small children close to her and a verse from the Bible swirls across the page。 It seems that the translation quoted is included after the verse if it is not KJV。 There are many races and ethnicities represented and each is drawn beautifully。 It is hard to tell， however， if this book is meant as a gift for new mothers， or a picture book for children。 I suppose it could be both，as I could definitely see this being a nice baby shower present and a nice bedtime book for little ones。 。。。more

Loved the artwork and bible verses spiraled across the pages。 This wasn’t very long， just 24 pages and such a delightful thing to share with a little one。 Each page has a lot to take in and will bring joy to anyone who hears this story。 Thank you B&H Publishing Group via Netgalley for this ARC。 All opinions of this review are my own。

This book just melt my heart。 As a mother i found so much comfort and love through this pages。 The illustrations are mesmerizing。 As a teacher you could use this book when Mother’s Day comes so children can better understand her love for them。 I love the Bible verses that makes each moment with your child holy。 A great book！ Good job！

Gorgeous baby book！ The illustrations are gorgeous and feature a diverse range of mothers and babies， who all look different and beautiful。 It is written in sweet and charming verse。 I loved the Biblical versus that accompanied each page。 I kept having to turn back to pages we had finished， because my kids were not done taking in the beautiful artwork。 This one is a winner！

Thanks to Netgalley and B&H Kids for a free digital copy for my review。 A very sweet book about how Motherhood points Moms to God's Word and the truths found there。 The illustrations are beautiful and the message very heartfelt。 Each page is a different mom with her kid（s） and they are all diverse。 Thanks to Netgalley and B&H Kids for a free digital copy for my review。 A very sweet book about how Motherhood points Moms to God's Word and the truths found there。 The illustrations are beautiful and the message very heartfelt。 Each page is a different mom with her kid（s） and they are all diverse。 。。。more
