Book Description

March 1, 1996
Acclaimed photographer Howard Schatz deftly captures the first wonder, confusion, joy, and frustration that newborn babies experience as they discover the world around them. Their perplexing facial expressions, the light in their eyes, even their body language give hints about the very special people they will grow to become. More than 30 extraordinary portraits of a diverse group of infant girls and boys, ranging in age from one day to one month, fill this unusual and irresistible collection. An enticing gallery of memorable images, Newborn beautifully records the essence of tiny lives and makes a perfect gift for new and expectant parents.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic and tastefully documented newborn infant photos, April 22, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: Newborn (Hardcover)
Fantastic black and white photography of newborn infants ranging from 1 to 22 days old. The photographs are tastefully done and show the beauty of a newborn. Rather than bore the reader with words, Schatz allows the story to be told in photos. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in newborns and to all expecting or new parents.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful gift for new parents., January 8, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Newborn (Hardcover)
This book captures the unique qualities of a newborn baby. A fleeting moment that most new parents don't appreciate because they are too exhausted! It makes me want to have another baby just to experience those first few days and have a chance to take some pictures of my own.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not impressed, June 22, 2009
This review is from: Newborn (Hardcover)
Some of the newborns in this book actually look freaky to me and trust me, I love newborns. Not what I expected. Alot of pages show baby's genitals too, like closeups. Private parts should be kept well, private. Not impressed at all.
