Konrad, Marla Stewart Mom and Me, 24 pgs. Tundra Books ~Language G, Sexual Content~G Violence~G
“Mom loves me like no one else.” This sweet sentiment from the last page of this exceptional book brought tears to my eyes as I concluded the story. In brief sentences, Konrad has taken images of a mother and child from many different cultures and many different walks of life, and created a story about what moms do for us. Readers will learn that mom’s are fundamentally the same all over the world. This title would be especially poignant in communities that lack multicultural influences. Extremely well done.
