Illustrated by
Emma Dodd.
A little protagonist loves Mom and thinks readers should, too. Andreae's rhyming text, highlighting the importance of the mother-child bond, supposedly from a toddler's perspective, is warm and humorous but not always convincing. Dodd's illustrations, big and bold and outlined with thick black lines, fill the pages, making this a cuddly lap-read.
