- Breastfeeding Books for Kids - Midwifery Books - Gift Books for Adults "I can't find books like these anywhere else. And I'm wearing my earrings, from my last order to you, just about every day." Many thanks! ~ Penelope Jacob Just wanted you to know that the book we just received from you, "All the Places to Love" is one of THE sweetest books that I have EVER read. My children received it for Christmas yesterday. I wished I'd bought it ages ago...I actually cannot think of a sweeter book that I've ever given my children and the illustrations are unspeakably beautiful. (and we have book cases FULL of children's books) You should describe it more on your site! I've always seen this book on your site and had NO idea it would be this precious... ~ Mia Fraser

Home Birth Books for Kids I Watched My Brother Being Born, by Anne and Katarina Vondruska This book by mother and daughter team Anne and Katarina makes a great compliment to the DVD by the same title. Katarina and her five year old brother Magnus watch their baby brother being born and tell about it in this charming and fact-filled book. The book takes on the voice of Katarina but also has an introduction for parents. "My goal with this book is to teach our children that giving birth is a natural, safe and fulfilling process. Unless the birthing mother has an illness that needs special medical attention, it need not be treated like a disease. By including our children at birth they can see that it is a normal and healthy physical event..." Illustrative photos from Anne's third childs actual birth at home in a birthing tub make this book a rare find. Buy the book and DVD together or separate, see below. Paperback #BK-BRO $12.50 I Watched My Brother Being Born, Including Children at Birth DVD I'm really excited about this great DVD that shows home water birth with children present. This is a great tool you can use to get your child(ren) ready to experience the birth of a sibling. This 21 minute movie is about two siblings ages five and seven who are present for their brother's home water birth. Partially told in the voice of seven year old Katarina, this is an excellent resource for expectant parents and birth professionals who are wanting to prepare children for the arrival of a new baby. A paperback book version seen above is also available which is a great accompaniment to watching the video. 21 minutes long. #BIRTH-DVD $25.00 Buy both book and DVD for $35.00, a savings of $2.50. #BRO-SET $35.00 My Brother Jimi Jazz, by Chrissy Butler This sweet book travels a long way to make it to Attachments bookshelves. I'm happy to be able to offer you this wonderful children's story book from Australia. In this book Chrissy writes from the perspective of a young girl about the beautiful home birth of her brother Jimi Jazz. This book also features breastfeeding, family bed, cloth diapers ( nappies!), and siblings shown at birth. You're not going to want to miss this rare find. Paperback #BK-JIMI $16.00 Runa's Birth is no longer available, you can order a copy from this UK based website: Made in Water Waiting for the Sun, by Alison Lohans Each summer day Mollie wakes up and wonders if this will be the day that her new baby brother or sister will be born. It's so hard to wait, almost like waiting for the sun to come up in the morning. Mollie lives on a farm, and her lazy summer days seem to creep by as her dad fixes the tractor, she feeds the chickens and watches the lightning storms in anticipation of the coming event. A beautifully illustrated book combining photographic and painted imagery. HB, Home Birth #BK-Sun $18.95 Grandfather's Christmas Tree, by Keith Strand Each year like to add a special Christmas book to our collection that really embodies for me what the goodness of humankind can offer, and what faith can mean. This story starts out in the present day when a grown man is telling of his childhood's yearly holiday trips to his Grandfather's ranch in Colorado. What this grown man remembers is the tall blue spruce tree that stands alone in front of his grandfather's home, and a small nest carrying two carved wooden geese and their goslings. Every year on Christmas Eve his Grandfather would place that carved nest in the lower branches of the spruce. When the man was eight years old he asked his Grandfather why. The rest of the book tells the story. It is a story of courage and trust - and a story I might add that includes birth at home and some discrete nursing. I think this book's story may become a holiday tradition in your home. Paperback Homebirth, Breastfeeding. #BK-GR $6 All the Places to Love, by Patricia MacLachlan "On the day Eli is born, his grandmother holds him up to the window, so that what he hears first is the wind, and what he sees first are all the places to love: the valley, the river falling down over rocks....." And so goes the story of two children birthed at home, in a place so beautiful that all who come from there will never forget it, no matter where life takes them. A truly moving book that will fill a special place in your library. Hardback Homebirth #BK-PLACE $15.95 © 1997-2008 Lori Thompson Photography
