Blueberry Eyes: A story sweet as blueberries, and warm as a momma bear's hug

Blueberry Eyes

Written and illustrated by Jenna Heinrich

In this heartwarming bedtime story, a curious little bear named Buttons snuggles close to his momma under the soft glow of the moonlight. As the forest settles in for the night, Buttons asks a simple question:

"Where did my blue eyes come from?"

What follows is a tender tale of love, imagination, and blueberry-filled memories as Momma Bear shares a sweet story of how Buttons's eyes came to sparkle like blueberries. From bowls of oatmeal and yogurt to muffins and pancakes, blueberries were her baby's favorite treat, even before he was born.

With gentle rhythm and cozy watercolor illustrations, Blueberry Eyes celebrates the everyday magic between a mother and her child. It's a story of wonder, belonging, and the unshakable love that exists simply because a child is theirs.

Perfect for bedtime reading, baby showers, or anyone who treasures the quiet beauty of parenthood, this book reminds little ones that they are cherished, not for what they do or how they look, but simply because they are.

Includes two verses from the Bible:

"I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made." Psalm 139:14

"See what kind of love the father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are." 1 John 1:3
