| On
the Day You Were Born |
A
Birthday Cake is No Ordinary Cake |
On
the Day You Were Born is considered a modern children’s classic.
The lyric text welcomes each child to the every day miracles of
planet Earth — sun, moon, rain, tides, North Star, and the circle
of people awaiting each child. |
Special
ingredients required! For this recipe you will need 365 sunrises,
a robin's song, plenty of shade, 2 crisp leaves, and a few shivers
in this celebration of each circle around the Sun. A birthday story
for any age. |
Both
books are by author/illustrator Debra Frasier. |
