| Publisher Description: In this irreverent, hilarious, and charming picture book, award-winning poet Victoria Chang and celebrated artist Marla Frazee show that all toddlers love their mommies--no matter what. Is Mommy tall or short? Short! Is Mommy fun or boring? Boring! In this joyous ode to hardworking mothers everywhere--who may not always be fun or organized or neat--Victoria Chang asks, do their toddlers love them anyway? Of course! Marla Frazee's colorful and humorous illustrations bring this simple text--perfect for reading aloud--to vivid life. |
