They welcome him to the world and wonder what he grow up to do and be. As the baby discovers his hands, feet, mouth, nose, and voice his parents imagine the activities he might do when he’s older. “Hey little baby, You’ve arrived in our world. Who will you be in this world? Who will you be in the marvelous world? We can’t wait to find out!” Leigh’s text is simple and broad, leaving the details and atmosphere to Côté. The mixed media illustrations are full of sunlit happiness. Digital patterns and textures are combined with watercolor washes and sketchy charcoal lines to create a warm and loving environment. The round headed, chubby limbed baby is simply adorable. The book begin with sunrise and ends at twilight, providing a through line to this plotless book. Readers will also notice that the boy grows older in each of his parents’ imaginings about his future; he starts as a toddler and grows to be 8 or 9 years old.
