A Thousand Years by Christina Perri is brought to life as a tender picture book on motherhood, featuring illustrations by New York Times bestselling illustrator Joy Hwang Ruiz.

I have spent every day waiting for you.
Darling, don't be afraid.
I have loved you for a thousand years.
I'll love you for a thousand more.
