Guide Review - Brought to Earth by Birth - Harriette Hartigan
The gorgeous baby stares up at you from the very simple book cover, inviting you in. From the get go, Harriette Hartigan's amazing eye for details in photography jump out at you, the passion in a subtle image. The black and white pictures throughout this book are inviting and filled with life.
The quotes that match the photos are simple and truthful. They tell the story of life before birth, being born and laboring to get there, first moments and of greetings. Who can resist such artwork?
This book is a great baby shower gift for a mother-to-be pr even a nice thank you gift for those in the birth field who have supported you. I would also hazard a guess that the reality of this book is far more gripping than any thirty minute show on television could be as well as more true to life, drama included.
