by Laurel Porter Gaylord (Author) Ashley Wolff (Illustrator)
This book begins with a heartwarming scene between a human parent and child, but moves on to loving care in many animal families.
She listens when I talk, says a mewing kitten. She tucks me in, says a joey kangaroo. Children will love reading about how baby animals spend time with their moms, and mammas everywhere. I love my mommy because she gives me great big hugs.
Este libro comienza con una escena conmovedora entre un padre humano y su hijo, pero continúa con el cuidado amoroso en muchas familias de animales. Ella escucha cuando hablo, dice un gatito maullando. Ella me arropa, dice un canguro joey. A los niños les encantará leer sobre cómo los animales bebés pasan tiempo con sus mamás y mamás en todas partes. Amo a mi mami porque me da grandes abrazos.

Another pair of board books is also offered in English and Spanish-English editions: I Love My Mommy Because... (Quiero a mi mama porque...) and I Love My Daddy Because... (Quiero a mi papa porque...) by Laurel Porter-Gaylord, illus. by Ashley Wolff. Children may well identify with the baby animals pictured, all of whom love their parents for all that they do for their children, whether it be a daddy emperor penguin that "keeps me safe and warm" or a mother panda that "gives me great big hugs."
