Summary
A parent's ode to everything their child is, and will be, capable of doing as they grow. Tonight, each small hand fits inside their parent's hand. But soon, this hand will grow-- to dig deep in the dirt, make masterpieces and mistakes, and tell stories only it can tell. With text that captures the potential in every child and glowing art that exudes warmth, this book braids three children's stories into one of family love. Featuring inclusive illustrations that show a child of two dads, a little girl who is deaf, and a child that is being raised by a singler mother with the help of a grandmother. Includes American Sign Language Glossary
