Under the Love Umbrella

Under the Love Umbrella - Children's Book by Davina Bell ✨

Whatever you fear, come close my dear
You’re tucked in safe for always here
And I will never not be near
Because of our love umbrella.

From this award-winning creative duo comes a stunning celebration of the joy and comfort that love can bring – wherever we roam in the big, wild world.

Polly & Co's Kids & Children's Books

Books are one of our go-to gift ideas! There’s something special about a gifting a beautiful hardcover book with a handwritten note inside the cover. Or, if you are shopping for your own little one, reading is a wonderful way to spend time together.

We always search to find books that help celebrate the wonder of our world, inspire imagination and/or mindfulness; books that make us learn, feel, and expand our views. And this has inspired our children's book collection here at Polly & Co.
