Book instead of card rhyme?

I knew I should have saved it but a few days ago someone posted a super cute rhyme about bringing a book instead of a card to a shower.  Anyone remember it?

  • One small request that won't be too hard 
    Please bring a book instead of a card 
    Whether Cat in the Hat or Winnie the Pooh 
    You can sign the inside cover with a note from you

  • It's one thing to ask for books as the primary gift (having a "stock baby's library shower"), but asking for a book in addition to a gift? You'll get some books, regardless. No need to dictate this to guests. Just my 2 cents.

    This was done at my shower a few weeks ago - alot of people commented that it cost them the same to buy a book instead of a card. It's a personal preference, if they don't feel like participating, they don't have to.
  • I LOVE LOVED this for my baby shower w/my girlfriends... I wish my mom would have thought of it when I she threw me hers!
  • My girlfriend's did this for my shower, and it was a hit! My mom, and MIL will be following suit and doing it for the family shower also.

  • wording #1

    Although cards are nice with their sentiment
    and prayer,
    They're read once or twice then tucked away
    with care.
    A book is a treasure, words and pictures unite
    Read over and over to teach and delight.
    So instead of a card for Baby and
    mother,
    Please give a child's book with your thoughts in the cover.
    Your book will be cherished; God will watch from above,
    When it's read they will remember your
    kindness and love

     

    wording #2
    We can't wait to see you at the shower
    When (mom-to-be's name) will be the woman of the hour
    We have one request we hope isn't too hard
    Please sign your name to a book instead of a card
    Then mom and dad will be ready when the baby arrives
    To read to their darling for the rest of their lives
