When I think back to my baby shower a few short years ago, of course I have fond memories. We had a book theme and our guests brought their favorite new or used children's books in lieu of cards. It was a fun theme and a great way to get our son's library off to a good start. Unfortunately, this was before I knew about party-planning and parenting blogs, and long before Pinterest existed. So now having searched around, I have some major why didn't I think of that? regrets. Lucky for you, I am not going to let all my new knowledge go to waste! From decor to themes to games and giveaways, I've rounded up 10 amazing ideas for a beautiful, book-themed baby shower. - By Michelle Horton
