I love My Mama by Peter Kavanagh
This is a great book for little ones. The cute rhymes follow adorable mother/child elephants as they play all day.
I Love You the Purplest by Barbara M. Joosse
If you have more than one child, you may have been asked who is your favorite? Using some mom wisdom, this book answers her boys question with ease. It’s a great way to remember that each child is unique and special in a mom’s eyes.
Meet Me at the Moon by Gianna Marino
If you are a mom who ever has to leave your child, you know it’s not always easy whether it’s for the workday, the weekend or longer. This is a great book to share with your child to remind them that distance never matters and love will always bring you back together.
Dinosaur vs. Mommy by Bob Shea
Oh man, this hits the nail on the head when you have a busy little one. My kids thought this one was hilarious and now drop a “roar” when they beat me at life.
Mom’s the Word by Timothy Knapman
What makes everything so amazing? Moms. And this book proves it.
I Love You, Stinky Face by Lisa McCourt
A mother’s love is not conditional. No matter what, mom will still love you. Plus some.
Our Love Grows by Anna Pignataro
Our Love Grows is a sweet book for mothers as they watch their little ones grow into not so little ones.
Silly Wonderful You by Sherri Duskey Rinker
Mothers don’t always feel
Alsion McGhee has written the most tender children’s book for mothers. Life has ups and downs but mothers are a constant through it all.
The Runaway Bunny by Margaret Wise Brown
It’s the classic. This is a must-have in every child’s library. And after all these years, it is the perfect way to describe how a mother will do anything for her child.
I have this thing for sea otters. The fact that when they sleep, they hold hands so they don’t drift apart is probably my favorite thing. Together is such a sweet story of a mama and her child.
