Throughout the day Mamas take care of their babies, showing their love for their little boys and girls with every kiss, every hug, every helping hand, every game and song, and every adventure and expedition. We are going to meet a large collection of Mamas doing these things and we are going to see lots of happy, sad, sleepy, joyful and sleepy babies who can always rely on getting that most priceless of things – their mother’s love.
This is a journey through a day as mothers share the hours from morning until night with the little people in their lives. A gentle rhyming text and engaging illustrations of babies and small children crawling, walking, crying, laughing and playing across the pages makes this a perfect book for a mother to share with her child.
