With lighthearted illustrations and a sweet, reflective tone, best-selling author Karen Kingsbury encourages parents to savor not only their children's firsts, like first steps and first words, but the lasts as well. With the tenderness of a mother speaking directly to her child, Karen reminds us not to miss last days of kindergarten and last at-bats in Little League amid the whirlwind of life. Adapted from a poem in Rejoice, this book allows mothers and grandmothers everywhere to identify with the tenderhearted reflections on these pages.

Now the same sweet content is available in this smaller edition at a special value price.

      Inspired by her observation that parents tend to record their children's "firsts" but can never anticipate their "lasts" (e.g., the last time a child is picked up and held), Kingsbury has created this sap fest in which sentences contort to complete rhymes that often don't scan. Collier's illustrations, featuring awkward, open-mouthed smiles, are gauzy to the point of looking blurry.
