El conmovedor relato de la gestación de un padre, por el ganador del premio Alfaguara 2009 «Encantado, hijo mío, de empezar a la vez a ser lo que seremos».Un hombre aguarda el nacimiento de su hijo. Asiste fascinado a la gestación junto a la madre, imagina a ese ser que vendrá a revolucionar su casa, su lenguaje, su pareja y su propia historia familiar. A lo largo de un año memorable, el hombre narra los primeros compases de una existencia nueva: la suya como padre junto a la madre y el hijo, tres personajes de una historia universal que encuentra palabras recién nacidas. Umbilical es un relato lírico cuyas búsquedas resuenan tanto en el plano íntimo como en el colectivo. Sus reflexiones sobre la experiencia de la paternidad sitúan a la masculinidad frente al milagro de la vida y su incesante relectura del presente, en una época de redefinición de los roles, aceptando así la invitación de la poeta Anne Waldman que encabeza estas páginas: «Que los hombres detengan su alboroto / frente a la maravilla del bebé». Pero es también, y sobre todo, una declaración de amor. El libro más íntimo de un autor fundamental disponible en el catálogo para lectores de todo el mundo. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The moving story of a man becoming a father, written by the winner of the 2009 Alfaguara Award. «I am delighted that we are together, my son, becoming what we will both be.» A man awaits his son's birth. Captivated, he follows the mother's pregnancy, imagining the child that will transform his house, his language, his relationship, and his family history. For a year, he annotates the memorable first steps leading the three of them into these new existential situations: being a father, a mother, a son; three different characters in a universal story, told in newly born words. Cord Blood is a lyrical tale that resonates both on intimate and collective levels. Its understanding of fatherhood faces masculinity with the miracle of life and its incessant rereading of the present. In a time that redefines traditionally attributed roles, Cord Blood accepts Anne Waldman's invitation: «Tell the man to give up tumult for the while / To wonder at the sight of baby's beauty.» But it is also, and above all, a love statement. The most intimate journal, from a fundamental author, available for readers from all over the world.

This book has excellent advice for all Christians, as well as those not sure of what the Bible says. The passages, illustrations, scriptures are presented logically, Biblically, and hold much wisdom. I enjoyed the encouragement, practical steps that all can use.

Diverse Worship--Make A Joyful Noise Unto The Lord All Ye Lands
Format: Hardcover
I love this beautifully illustrated story. Children and adults, too, learn God's vision for His church—true worship. Author Dorena Williamson presents an image of a church no longer divided by race, culture, or style of worship. Instead, the church is a gathering of God's people celebrating who He is and all He has done. Also included are author notes suggesting ways to share the importance of embracing and celebrating God's diverse world with children.

We Are Better Together
Format: Hardcover
One Sunday morning when all the Sunday school classes landed in a heap for a multi-generational assembly followed by muffins, I read aloud from The Celebration Place, Dorena Williamson’s anthem to the Body of Christ gathered. How refreshing to share the truth that worship (and worshipers!) will look and participate differently in other places!
Here in rural Maine where a choir is as rare a sight as a brown face, Erin Bennett Banks’s vivid illustrations enriched the text, and I was pleased to hear adult chuckles accompanying the page about rappers “nodding to the beat” while “old folks stomp their feet.” Together, author and illustrator announce the church as “no longer a divided space. Now it’s a celebration place!”
With so many fractures in our world upon which we can distance and divide, the pursuit of unity in the Body of Christ is difficult but crucial. The work toward delightful diversity done today in God’s House is affirmation of the truth that we are better together, and it is preparation for the day when we will join with all nations God has made to glorify his name, for he is great and worthy of our celebration.
Many thanks to IVP Kids for providing a copy of this book to facilitate my review, which is, of course, offered freely and with honesty.

A message of unity
Format: Hardcover
The Celebration Place is a vibrant picture book highlighting diverse cultures and people worshipping God in a variety of glorious ways. This inclusive book portrays vocal artists, indigenous groups, and a person in a wheelchair in praise of a God whose presence reaches around the globe. The book’s message rings clear: when God’s people assemble in love, the church is a celebratory place. The back matter prompts further conversation. Children and their caregivers will want this important book in their hands and on their shelves. This honest review is based on an e-advanced reader copy from the author and publisher.
