Overview

“I love my mommy because she gives me great big hugs.”
This beloved, best-selling concept book, richly illustrated by Ashley Wolff, is now available as a board book for small hands. The youngest nursery tots will appreciate how phrases and actions from their own experiences also apply to animal babies. Each book begins with an affectionate scene between a human parent and child, but moves on to caregiving in animal families. “She listens when I talk” shows a mama cat and her mewing kitten. “She tucks me in” features a kangaroo with her joey peeking out of her pouch. “He sings me songs” shows a gray wolf and his cub. In concept, text, and art, these are among the most warm and reassuring lap books ever.

I Love My Mommy Because . . . will also be available in bilingual (English/Spanish) board-book editions.

As a child explains the many happy, loving things Mommy does, many different animal mothers are shown caring for their young.

Editorial Reviews

Publishers Weekly
In keeping with the spirit of the season, animals and their offspring feature in four titles released just in time for Mother's Day and Father's Day. In I Love My Mommy Because... and I Love My Daddy Because... , both by Laurel Porter-Gaylord, parents give their babies ample reasons to be loved: "She tucks me in" (a kangaroo pats the joey in her pouch); "He makes me laugh" (a father chimpanzee engages in some monkey business). Ashley Wolff's mostly realistic, but always adorable animal portraits will have readers cooing.
From The Critics
Another pair of board books is also offered in English and Spanish-English editions: I Love My Mommy Because... (Quiero a mi mama porque...) and I Love My Daddy Because... (Quiero a mi papa porque...) by Laurel Porter-Gaylord, illus. by Ashley Wolff. Children may well identify with the baby animals pictured, all of whom love their parents for all that they do for their children, whether it be a daddy emperor penguin that "keeps me safe and warm" or a mother panda that "gives me great big hugs."

    GREAT BABY GIFT!

    We read this book, and its companion, I love my daddy because...to my daugther when she was little, and I order this book for new baby gifts all the time. The pictures and message are so sweet - it is a timeless classic!

    Best Book Ever (for mom's to read to kids!)

    I happened to find this book while searching for something new for my daughter. I loved the story, short and sweet & to the point. The pictures are beautiful! Most importantly, she loved it, and sat through it, twice!
