Songs for our Sons
A star-scattered night, a brand new baby boy, and all the potential in the world… This is a poetic introduction to what it means to be a boy in the challenging times we live in, and all of the dazzling possibilities that await him. A beautiful and poignant message is at the heart of this book: whatever is expected of you, you can be whoever you want to be.
With gold foil detail on the cover, this is a truly stunning gift for sons and parents at any key life moment, from birth to graduation.

A gentle, hopeful dream for a kinder world.
Kirkus
Full of a sense of tenderness but also possibilities … every turn of the page [is] an adventure. Giving this and receiving it, both will be a real joy.
