‘I am so happy! I have always wanted my mom to play with me.’
Shelley Admont is a successful mom and a successful creator of children's books that are for both entertainment and lessons for behavior for children. In this book she has wisely engaged illustrator Biljana Serafimovska who provides wonderful images for Admont's story.
Shelley opens her story describing the intensive work the mother performs as a scientist. Mom picks up our main character from school each day and the little girl asks to go to the park to play. The little girl plays on the monkey bars and slide, imagines being a pirate, or an explorer – but her mom doesn’t join the fun: she works on her laptop for her job instead, never smiling. One day the little girl asks her mom to play with her and her mom tells her she doesn’t know how. The little girl patiently and with love teaches her mom the monkey bars pretending they are monkeys. And with that successful lesson her mom learns the importance and fun of playing
Not only is this a dear story about a strong and loving relationship between a mother and daughter, but it also encourages the use of imagination in seeking quality time between parents and children
Shelly has a fine way of writing stories that offer instruction and advice to children about compassion and creativity – and the illustrations are, as always, terrific. Another winner from Shelly Admont!

A big little girl tale with a big heart, where mom’s little sweet pea brought back the smile and happiness to her face. A lovely story of how the modern moms of the day work too hard and play too little with their kids. A nice way to spend some downtime with your children making them feel loved and giving them that opportunity in helping to put the joy back into your steps for the day. A fun sweet read for any kid and moms of course.

Kids really do have a lot to teach us, if we only learn to listen to them once in a while. They are perfect reminders that quality time doesn't have to be so grand. You just have to be there, really be there, and live and enjoy the moment together. ♥
