Told through the tender voice of a newborn, Message From a Preemie is a heartfelt letter from a tiny baby to the parents who love them.
From the quiet flutter of life inside the womb to the beeping monitors of the NICU, this gentle story follows a premature baby’s earliest days — the incubator that keeps them warm, the nurses who become family, and the parents who show up again and again, even when leaving is hard. With warmth and honesty, the baby reassures Mommy and Daddy: I hear you. I feel you. And I’m growing stronger every day.
Inspired by author Alex Blanco’s real-life experience spending over nine months at his premature grandson’s incubator, this book was written to comfort NICU families and celebrate the quiet, extraordinary bravery of the smallest fighters.
Little Lucas loves hot rods and he knows exactly what makes them run!
Join Lucas and his faithful dog as they explore the garage, popping the hood on a gleaming hot rod to discover the three things every motor needs: gas, air, and spark. Along the way, young readers learn about fuel filters, air filters, batteries and spark plugs, brake lights and blinkers, tire pressure, and all the fluids that keep an engine purring all through simple, rhythmic text and bright, engaging illustrations.
Perfect for car-loving kids, future mechanics, and anyone who’s ever wondered what’s really going on under the hood,
