A great reminder that material gifts aren’t always the best gifts. We each bring something unique to the world.

Sometimes it's not a physical gift that means the most. Loretta finds ways to give to her younger cousin that don't involve grand gestures or a lot of money. Love and time is the most important part of her gift.

Loretta needs to find the perfect gift for her new baby cousin but finding the perfect gift is harder than she thought she would be.

Love IS the best gift!!!! A beautiful story about a little girl who can't find the perfect gift for her new baby cousin. Then she realizes her love is the best gift. This story is on the longer side and would be better for a lower elementary read loud.

ALL THE CUTE. Sweet book for pre-K and up about the love a family shares.

It might be the thought that counts, but you still want to pick the best gift possible! That's Loretta's dilemma when she finds out a new cousin is on the way. When you're little yourself, though, you don't have much to offer. Then cousin Gabe is born and Loretta spends a lot of time with him...and maybe that's the best present of all.

This is a sweet story with adorable illustrations. It shows that gifts come in different forms, including quality time. A good read-aloud for primary grades.

love the illustrations in this and the perspective of a young girl wanting to be helpful when her nephew is born. Very good possible gift or storytime about babies or maybe helping
