Made for Me

Of all the children that ever could be,
You are the one made just for me.

There’s something about watching a tiny hand curl around your finger for the first time—or hearing that miraculous first “Dada”—that changes everything. Made for Me captures these precious, fleeting moments between father and child with gentle verse and heartwarming illustrations that feel like a warm embrace on a chilly Maine morning.

This charming board book celebrates the extraordinary bond between dads and their little ones, from those wobbly first steps to the quiet bedtime snuggles that make the day’s chaos worthwhile. Zack Bush’s tender refrain threads through each page like a lullaby, reminding us that some connections are simply meant to be.

Perfect for:

• New fathers discovering the wonder of parenthood
• Father’s Day gifts that speak from the heart
• Baby showers celebrating expectant dads
• Bedtime reading that strengthens family bonds
• Any parent who wants to honor the special relationship between father and child

The sturdy board book format means this treasure can withstand enthusiastic little hands and countless re-readings (because trust us, you’ll be asked for “one more time” again and again). It’s the kind of book that gets tucked into diaper bags, left on nightstands, and eventually passed down—a little worn, deeply loved, and filled with memories of when they were small enough to fit in the crook of your arm.

Some books we read. Others we live with. This one becomes part of your story.
