Baby Shower - Books for Nursery
Does anyone have a little poem for baby shower invites asking people to bring a book for the nursery for baby? I thought I saw them, but now I can't find anything.
Thanks!

Re: Baby Shower - Books for Nursery
I found some...finally!!
Bring a Book
As (Mother-to-be's name) due date is coming near, We're inviting friends and family dear. To choose a favorite story or fairy tale That you would like Baby ________ to hear. Instead of a card, please let (mother-to-be's name)look, At your special choice of a book, and then to Baby _________ she will read With all the love a newborn will need. So with a personal touch, please choose a book And in it then your name do put. It need not cost more than a card Just pick a favorite, it shouldn't be hard. author unknown
I want to be a bright child As smart as I can be. That is why I'm hoping My mom will read to me. If you plan to bring a card Please take another look, I would like to learn my ABC's From your favorite storybook. Please sign your name As your personal touch. Baby ________ thanks you Beary, beary much.
Or replace the last paragraph with the following:
Please add your name and a note Then I'll know you've done your part. Some day I'll surely thank you From the bottom of my heart. ~ author unknown ~
Although cards are nice They're read once or twice Maybe three or four times at best A book is a treasure Forever and Forever So instead of a card To be put aside Please give the little baby A book with your name inside It will be read to our little tyke Before bed each night And we will thank you Forever and Forever! ~ submitted by Erin, Thanks! ~
A card is nice, its sentiment sweet, But a book will keep baby on her feet. For years to come, baby will read Longing for stories will never be a need. A shelf full of wisdom for all to give, For baby to keep as long as she shall live. Filling the shelf should not be hard, If you would please sign a book instead of a card.

Re: Baby Shower - Books for Nursery
I'd love to do this for my shower, but I'm wondering...do you get a lot of the same books? and you can't return or exchange them if they're written in.
Any feedbak from mom's who have had this at their showers?
