(3) PS Illustrated by Santiago Cohen. A mother lovingly relates to her new baby all that happened "before you were here." The flowing narrative, sprinkled with Spanish words and phrases ("...you lived in mi barriguita, sleeping, eating, and growing..."), emphasizes the love of the extended family all awaiting baby's birth. The illustrations contain striking colors, simple shapes, and fluid dark lines. Glos.
