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.
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
