"Anna Ostenso Moore's new book, Today is a Baptism Day, gently and yet passionately reminds us that we are all invited to be in relationship with God, and that baptism is a powerful embrace of God's never-ending love. Matching the lively spirit of her words are Peter Krueger's compelling illustrations, sparking joy on the part of the reader. This is a book to give, to treasure, and to have in the library of all faith communities. Well done!"

"Today is a Baptism Day is beautiful at every level: artistically, theologically, scripturally, and communally. The stunning artistry perfectly weaves depictions of a variety of families who might bring their infant to the baptismal font; the text is poetically straightforward, with layers of meaning to be uncovered and rejoiced in over the years of celebrating a child's baptism. An instant keepsake!"
