It’s not hard to see why On the Night You Were Born was such an enormous hit for children’s author Nancy Tillman. After all, who wouldn’t love the book’s opening lines: “On the night you were born, the moon shone with such wonder that the stars peeked in to see you, and the night wind whispered, ‘Life will never be the same.’” “Although one suspects that grown-ups will be most taken with the topic and treatment,” said Publishers Weekly in 2005, “this is one of those rare baby books that should make both skeptics and sentimentalists of all ages happy.” The New York Times agreed, adding another, non-newborn fan base: “Older children should be particularly gratified to find out what a big deal they really are.” As the newest of her baby books became an “instant classic,” Nancy Tillman continued to write and illustrate children’s books as beloved by grown-ups as they were by their kids. Kirkus Reviews called It’s Time to Sleep, My Love, “a luxuriant bedtime retreat for children and parents alike, and Booklist said it was a “gentle, tender offering [that] will buoy children with its strong messages of safety and love.” From polar bears dancing to celebrate your birthday to the wind reminding you of your mother’s love, children’s author Nancy Tillman has a knack for creating beautiful, comforting children’s books for readers of all ages.
