We Needed a You

A Children’s Book to Celebrate How a Child Brightens the World

Written by M.H. Clark / Illustrated by Olivia Holden

“Before you were here, there were people to love… to hold hands with and dance with and be with and hug. There were good friends and best friends and family too. But something was missing. We needed a you.”

When a child enters your life, everything changes. The world becomes brighter, bigger, and more complete in every way — simply because they are in it.

This heartfelt picture book is a celebration of the joy and love a child brings. With lyrical writing from award-winning author M.H. Clark (You Belong Here, Everywhere, Still, Tiny, Perfect Things) and vibrant illustrations by Olivia Holden, it’s a keepsake that reminds little ones just how much they matter.

Perfect for bedtime reading, it’s a story that shows children they are deeply loved, and that life has been richer and more magical since their arrival.
