"Whatever you are on your birthday, you were never that old before, you will never be that young again." These wise words from poet Beatrice Schenk de Regniers help explain why Lee Bennett Hopkins and Hilary Knight decided that a book should be devoted to the celebration of this momentous occasion in everyone's life. It's special. It's important. It's fun. And this little book embraces every aspect of the big day, from party invitations to cake to pinning the tail on the donkey to making a birthday wish. With help from such luminaries as Dr. Seuss, Nancy White Carlstrom, Myra Cohn Livingston, and none other than William Shakespeare (whose birthday was April 23, we learn from the list of famous birthdays on the inside cover), this collection of birthday verses will delight every birthday boy or girl. Hilary Knight's familiar style (as seen in Eloise, of course!) graces the pages with lighthearted playfulness. (Ages 4 to 8) --Emilie Coulter
