My Mom

by Debbie Bailey, Susan Huszar (Photographer)

This innovative series grew out of a desire to provide all children with the opportunity to see themselves within the books they are reading and to identify with the children and families they see. The diversity of today’s families is clearly captured. The simple text and engaging photographs explore the relationship between very young children and their environment. My Mom explores a young child’s world using photographs of a variety of children in natural settings, interacting with their mothers.

Seriously, the 80 pictures are awesome!

I read this book to Alissa and John Francis as they played on our newly enclosed pool area. They carried toys and ate sweet potato for hours. They'd look at the pictures every now and then as they passed.
