From Liza Baker and David McPhail, the team who brought you I LOVE YOU BECAUSE YOU'RE YOU, comes this new ode to a mother's love. In a snuggly padded board book format.
"Mama's right here."
What's better than hearing those three words, spoken with such love? With Liza Baker's signature warmth and David McPhail's sensitive watercolors, a new classic is born.
Every child experiences the ups and downs of growing up-- from the first day of school jitters, to snuggling in bed with a book, to winning a race. But a parent's words of support and comfort can dry tears, and add sparkle to every achievement. The padded covers of this cardstock board book makes it a favorite bedtime companion.
In this lullabyesque tale from the team behind I Love You Because You're You, a kangaroo mother comforts her daughter throughout all her new experiences, such as going to school and running in a race. McPhail's illustrations-the two kangaroos splashing in the rain, the little kangaroo learning how to share a red ball with friends-are just as soothing as Baker's text ("Mama's right here/ And I always will be"). The sweet affection shared between mama and child is sure to make it a favorite. Ages 2-5. (Apr.)
