This is really probably useless, but I just couldn't let it go by
without mentioning Neil Gaiman's _The Wolves in the Walls_. It's a
creepy book for toddlers, which is not what you asked for, being a) for
toddlers, and 2) creepy. Still, it's a story by Neil Gaiman, with
illustrations. What more could you want?
(If you have a Barnes & Noble, Borders, Books-A-Million, or similar big
box store near you, I suggest you visit and pick out a few books based
on your current and future needs. I'm sure you will find plenty of
nice, expensive, big name baby books there. Or, you could do like my
sister, and go to Goodwill. It's sometimes amazing the things people
are willing to part with. :)
