Book Overview

Before the story begins, love is already there.

Before a name is spoken.

Before a life takes shape.

Before a single moment is seen or held-

a child is already known, already dreamed of, and already loved.

Before Your Story Began is a tender, lyrical picture book that captures the quiet, sacred anticipation that comes before a child arrives. Through gentle, poetic language and soft, imaginative illustrations, it reflects the hopes, dreams, and wonder that grow in the waiting-those unseen moments when a story is just beginning.

Each page invites readers into a world of possibility: of whispered questions, imagined futures, and a love that deepens long before a first hello. It is a celebration of beginnings-not just the moment a child is born, but all the moments that come before.

This beautifully illustrated keepsake is perfect for:

  • expecting parents preparing to welcome a new baby
  • baby showers and pregnancy announcements
  • adoption journeys and long-awaited arrivals
  • grandparents, family, and loved ones who share in the anticipation

Written to be read slowly and treasured deeply, this is a story that grows more meaningful with time-one that can be returned to again and again, long after the waiting has passed.

Whether given as a heartfelt gift or read aloud in quiet moments, Before Your Story Began is a reminder that every life begins surrounded by love.

Because every story starts before we ever know its name.

About Susanne Blumer

Susanne Blumer lives on Huckleberry Farm in Upstate South Carolina with her husband and two children. A former model and city girl, Susanne became an accidental farm girl and fell in love with her new life. Her adventures on the farm are the inspiration for many of her books. As Susanne puts it, "Having a farm is like a story. Sometimes it's a comic book. Sometimes it's a horror story. But mostly it's a fairy tale." In short order, Susanne became a chicken breeder, goat wrangler, shepherdess, home school mom, donkey whisperer and fence repairer. She has delivered stubborn lambs, ran from determined cows, and everyone at the post office calls her the Crazy Chicken Lady due to the number of chicks she has shipped and received. In addition to chickens, the farm is home to cows, donkeys, guineas, ducks, cats, Barbados sheep, miniature Babydoll sheep, three Great Pyrenees and a pet goose named Walker. Susanne is the author of the best-selling Pip! Zip! Hatch! Love! and Wooly Meets The Chickens: Book 1 of the Huckleberry Farm series. She is also the author of the upcoming Piper Periwinkle(TM) books. You can contact her at www.susanneblumer.com.
