APPEALS TO: MANY

With Mom by my side, I feel safe and strong. Using our imagination, we sail a ship around the garden. We take a rocket into space and have picnics on the moon. My mom can fix anything! We paint pictures, we dance, we jump, and we sing! 

In this beautifully illustrated picture book, a heartwarming story of a sweet relationship between mother and daughter is explored. This would be the perfect book to give as a gift. This book could be used by teachers in a unit about families.  I love that this book focuses on the mother/ child bond whether biological or adoptive mothers.
