What a wonderful way to start the holiday season. Mrs. Jeannine Norris came to our school and introduced the children to her beautiful book, Tonight You are My Baby: Mary’s Christmas Gift. The children were riveted as she read the story and it was projected large than life on the whiteboard. Mrs. Norris kept them engaged in the story all the while sharing her experiences with them. Many of the teachers commented that Mrs. Norris had such a beautiful “way” with the children, just as she has a beautiful way with words. This book and this author are both truly a gift from God. - Patty Welsh, Principal, Our Lady of the Assumption Preschool and Kindergarten

Jeannine told the story in such a beautiful, poetic way....I felt like Mary was talking to me! What a wonderful gift she brought to all of us with her soothing voice, wonderful story and the amazing illustrations. I wish that all children could be as lucky as ours were to "hear" Mary's story! - St. Catherine of Sienna, Reading

"Our students loved your visit and our teachers and staff were so moved by your book. Thank you for taking the time to visit our pre-k, kindergarten, first and second grade classrooms. You could tell by the children's attentiveness that they really enjoyed the story. Such simple, loving words and beautifully
illustrated artwork to tell the story of that Holy Night. What a wonderful way to help us all focus on the true meaning of our Christmas celebration! ~ Peg McBride, PTO Events Coordinator, St. Philip Neri School

"Jeannine Norris' visit to our preschool was a wonderful addition to our curriculum during the month of December. The children are so excited during this time of year ... it was a perfect antedote to have the children sit and listen to Jeannine read a story about that quiet and peaceful night . ..the night the baby Jesus was born. This book is a beautiful way to introduce and re-emphasize the Christmas story to any age child. It is a story of awe and wonder - what we so desperately need to be reminded of. ~ Donna Hepner, Director, Hopewell Christian Preschool

"On December 15th, St. Agnes School in West Chester had a wonderful visit from Jeannine Norris. Students in Preschool through third grade were able to experience a presentation of her Christmas book "Tonight You Are My Baby". Her presentation is very interactive and students loved the story. The second and third grade also had a presentation on writing, which had them thinking about how an author spends their day. Questions were answered and books autographed. The morning ended with Mrs. Norris meeting with our writer's workshop, which is a group of junior high students. They had an informal lunch in the library. It was an enjoyable day for all! ~ St. Agnes School

"What a great presentation you gave to our K-8 students. Your book captured the beautiful story of the birth of Jesus and Mary's love for her son. Your informative and interactive presentation showed students that anyone can be a writer, and how to find ideas. We were thrilled to have you at St. Katharine of Siena School, especially as we prepared for Christmas." ~ St. Katharine of Siena School

"What a gift to have Jeannine share her heart, her faith and her story with our MOPS (Mothers of Preschoolers) group. All of our hearts were moved as Jeannine shared such touching reflections on being a mother, a daughter, a friend and a writer. Her book gives such a precious look into the Christmas miracle through the eyes of a mother. My family will be blessed to have this in our collection for many years to come!"
~ MOPS (Mothers of Preschoolers), Bethlehem, PA

"The students from St. Joseph School, Downingtown, had a delightful visit from Jeannine Norris as she shared her life as an author and her beautiful book, Tonight You Are My Baby.
Interaction with Mrs. Norris during her presentation was a special feature for the children." ~ St. Joseph School
