There’s nothing more soothing than the image of a new baby snoozing—especially if you’re a new, sleep-deprived parent yourself. Now imagine dozens upon dozens of bambinos snuggled up in a variety of sleep spaces: a hammock, a sweater-lined wicker basket or even in a pair of strong, ample-sized hands. That’s the premise of Sleeping Beauties: Newborns in Dreamland (Sellers Publishing), the just-released coffee table-sized book devoted to the simplicity of sweet slumber.

The photography team, twin sisters Tracy Raver and Kelley Ryden, bring a keen eye to the camera, as they capture these brand-new babies—many of whom were just days old—in the most endearing poses. Page after page of glossy photos show just how calming the sight of a sleeping baby can be. (Do you remember the last time you felt that relaxed after a good night’s sleep?) In fact, many of the babies featured look as though they are back in the womb, with little arms and legs tucked in ever so securely…amazing. If you’re looking for a unique present for a mom-to-be or for someone who just loves babies, this book is sure to be passed around at baby showers and treasured for years to come.
