What is Songs for our sons about?

From a star-scattered night to a brand-new baby boy, this poetic picture book celebrates the many possibilities ahead. Through playful rhymes and tender illustrations, it encourages boys to explore nature, express their feelings, use kind and thoughtful words, and grow into whoever they choose to be. A warm, hopeful message reminds readers that strength can include gentleness, imagination and compassion, while inviting every child to dream of a kinder, brighter world.
