Illustrated by
David Walker.
While reminiscing over family photos, a grandmother describes to her granddaughter the ways the little girl is like her mother was when she was a child: "Your mommy was bouncy and twirly-whirly. Just like you." Pastel-hued acrylic illustrations elaborate on the notion, showing many vignettes of Mommy as a child--playing soccer, learning to ride a bike, and enduring a time-out in the corner.
