Once upon a first morning

Some love is finished growing. This kind never is.

I Love You More than the Day Before follows a mother and her child through the small, enormous firsts of a new life. Along the way it finds the quiet truth every parent learns: tomorrow's love is always a little bigger than today's.

The first day

The day you were born, even the morning seemed brand new.

The first laugh

The day you first laughed, the butterflies stopped to listen.

“Somehow, I loved you more than the day before.”

Sue Schlesman, I Love You More than the Day Before

Inside the book

What's between the covers

  • Watercolor worlds. Alexandra Rutkowski paints meadows, butterflies, fireflies and wide-open skies in soft, sunlit color.
  • One gentle refrain. Every page builds back to the same promise, so little listeners can say it with you.
  • A parent's-eye view. Baby's firsts, told the way they feel from the rocking chair.
