Book Reviews of Are You My Mother?
Book Review: A very cute book!
Summary: 5 Stars
When I was a little child my mother use to read me the book, Are You My Mother. It is a very cute book! At the begining of the book a little baby bird can't find his mother, he doesn't even know who she is or what she looks like. He goes around asking all kinds of things like bulldozer and a steam engine if they are his mother. At the end he finely finds her. I think every mother should read this book to there child, because I know that I enjoyed it when my mother read it to me.Book Review: A very powerful & emotional book for children
Summary: 5 Stars
This book will make your child run the gamut of emotions, from sadness, to desperation, to joy at the end. I still remember this story well from my own early childhood. It sure made me appreciate my mother!! We bought it for our own child and it is one of his favorites. This is an essential book for any child's library.
(A big caveat: make sure your child isn't overly sensitive. Also make sure to read this book to the very end or else your child will be very sad!)
Also as another reviewer pointed out, this book has deeper themes for adults to ponder as well! It's one of the few books I can read to my kid and actually be interested in analyzing it. :)
Book Review: An Absolute Favorite!!
Summary: 5 Stars
This was one of my favorite Dr. Seuss books when I was little. I am 24 now and I still have my book (and yes its falling apart). I am keeping it to read to my kids someday. Cute story about a baby bird who goes looking for his mother who went out to get some food. He meets all sorts of things along the way and asks them all "Are you my mother?". I saw another review about this book saying that it was "Scarry" and I can't help but roll my eyes. I never once thought the book was scarry when I was little nor did my brother. I am sure your kids will love it as much as so many other generations have. Hey it's Dr. Seuss, you just can't go wrong! :)Book Review: An unforgettable book!
Summary: 5 Stars
Poor little birdie came into this world and his mother was out getting him his first meal. He goes through a series of, "Are you my mother?" to planes, cows, dogs, until he almost gives up. As this book unravels, you cheer on the birdie while he goes through his wonders of who he feels a sense of belonging to. P.D.Eastman uses repitition and adds easy drawings to perfect a child's love and want to hear this book OVER AND OVER again. One of the first books I learned to read by and still own the same raggedy copy.Book Review: Another great childrens book
Summary: 5 Stars
My child is only 3 months right now, and he will actually look at the pages while my husband reads this book to him. I think it's a fun book to read with your child(ren). When they are a little older, these are good books to help them learn to read.
