A tribute to his wife and daughters, new children’s book hits shelves August 24. Pre-order available now.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (August 3, 2021) – Multi-Platinum entertainer Brett Young transforms his touching GOLD-certified, No. 1 hit single “Lady” into a new children’s picture book, “Love You, Little Lady” which goes on sale August 24 everywhere books are sold.
Dedicated to his wife and baby girls, “Love You Little Lady” reflects the boundless love parents have watching their baby daughter grow into a “little lady.” Through stirring rhymes and warm, sweet illustrations, Young takes readers through the wonder of hearing a baby girl’s first heartbeat, holding her for the very first time, counting her fingers and toes, guiding her first steps, and watching her grow.
“‘Lady’ is easily one of the most special songs I’ve ever written,” said Young. “Becoming a dad has changed everything for me…I’ve heard from so many families saying how much the song has meant to them as well, which is the dream as a songwriter. When we were given the opportunity to transform ‘Lady’ into a children’s book, it was such an easy ‘yes.’ Taylor and I feel so blessed to have this book as a keepsake and to read to our girls as they grow up.”
“Love You, Little Lady” is a joyful read and gift celebrating the moments of now and the moments to come — from the meeting one’s newborn daughter, to the years of growing, learning, and sharing that the future brings to families.
Young is an award-winning country music singer-songwriter, whose love for his family inspired him to write the hit single “Lady.” The California-born singer has captured the hearts of fans everywhere with his heartfelt lyrics and West Coast-meets-Southern sound. He recently released an 8-song collection, WEEKENDS LOOK A LITTLE DIFFERENT THESE DAYS, this summer and returns to the road with his THE WEEKENDS TOUR kicking off in September.
“Love You, Little Lady” (ISBN# 9781400225071) is ideal for ages 4-8 and will be released on August 24, 2021 and now is available for pre-order everywhere books are sold.
