 Jewel
There’s no stronger
bond than the love a mother has for her child. Morning, afternoon, and night, a
mother and child’s day is filled with love. In That’s What I’d Do, four-time Grammy nominee Jewel celebrates her
newborn son. Lyrical and lovely, this soothing lullaby, accompanied by the tender
illustrations of Amy June Bates, is perfect for bedtime sharing. At the 2011
Grammys, Jewel told Aol.com "to me, this is just a
love story to your child. I'm really excited for moms to get to sit down and
read this to their babies." This hardcover book includes a CD of the
lullaby being sung aloud. Jewel is
an award-winning singer, songwriter, philanthropist, painter, poet, actress,
and daughter to an Alaskan cowboy singer-songwriter. She has three internationally
bestselling albums. Jewel is also the author of the New York Times bestselling
book of poetry A Night Without Armor and a chronicle of her life as a
traveling musician, Chasing Down the Dawn: Life on the Road.. She lives on
a working ranch near Stephenville,
Texas with her husband, World
Champion bull-riding superstar, Ty Murray, and her son, Kase.
