# I Love You, Michigan Baby - Board Book

by **Shirley Vernick** (Author), **Molly Bergin** (Illustrator)

"Michigan Baby, I love you so much. My love for you is longer than the Mackinac Bridge and taller than a lighthouse. My love for you is brighter than the city lights and as peaceful as a day in our Michigan forests." And so it reads in this adorable book about all things Michigan. Cuddly and warm illustrations capture the joy and excitement of being a baby in the Great Lakes State, and the loving text and sweet verses make _I Love You, Michigan Baby_ a love letter to all of Michigan's newborns and tiny visitors alike.
