Baby SHower Poem help

anyone know that poem that asks people to buy a book for the baby to help build his or her librabry?

I want to do this at work for 2 moms to be.

Although cards are nice with their sentiment
and prayer,
They're read once or twice then tucked away
with care.
A book is a treasure, words and pictures unite
Read over and over to teach and delight.
So instead of a card for Baby and
mother,
Please give a child's book with your thoughts in the cover.
Your book will be cherished; God will watch from above,
When it's read they will remember your
kindness and love.

I want to be a bright child
As smart as I can be.
That is why I'm hoping
My mom will read to me.
If you plan to bring a card
Please take another look,
I would like to learn my ABC's
From your favorite storybook.
Please sign your name
As your personal touch.
Baby ________ thanks you
Beary, beary much.

Or replace the last paragraph with the following:

Please add your name and a note
Then I'll know you've done your part.
Some day I'll surely thank you
From the bottom of my heart

A card is nice, its sentiment sweet,
But a book will keep baby on her feet.
For years to come, baby will read
Longing for stories will never be a need.
A shelf full of wisdom for all to give,
For baby to keep as long as she shall live.
Filling the shelf should not be hard,
If you would please sign a book instead of a card.

OH THANK YOU!!!

I found this one too

As Mum’s(name) due date is coming near,
We're inviting friends and family dear.
To choose a favourite story or fairy tale
That you would like Baby XXXXX to hear.
Instead of a card, please let Mum(name here) and Dad(name) look,
At your special choice of a book,
and then to Baby XXXX they will read
With all the love a newborn will need.
So with a personal touch, please choose a book
And in it then your name and message please put.
It need not cost more than a card
Just pick a favourite, it shouldn't be hard.
