I found this book on an old dusty bookshelf in my living room and knew I wanted to talk about it. This book talks about having a mom, which seems simple - but for some students can be a very difficult topic. The wording of this book is incredibly repetitive, but it is supposed to be. This book has absolute beautiful illustrations of different animals with their mothers on each page. The illustrations are unique in creative art style, colorful, as well as engaging. There is not really a point of view in this story, I think it would be a third person outsider telling the story.The plot is very organized and repetitive. I was slightly disappointed in this book. The book goes on listing things about how mothers love their children, but what if the child doesn't have a mother. This book is great for a specific time and place, but this place is not in the classroom. If students do not have a mother figure this book would definitely be very upsetting. The main message of this story is that mothers love their children. no reviews | add a review

The only way I can get through this without getting annoyed is if I have my daughter finish the sentences....and I will not be able to use this as a read aloud in school because many home lives are sadly broken. ( )
