Description

This innovative series grew out of a desire to provide all children with the opportunity to see themselves within the books they are reading and to identify with the children and families they see. The diversity of todays families is clearly captured. The simple text and engaging photographs explore the relationship between very young children and their environment. My Mom explores a young childs world using photographs of a variety of children in natural settings, interacting with their mothers.

Reviews

(reviewed with Hats and Shoes) The "Talk-About Books" have been designed with great care for the children who will see them. Pages are easy to turn, illustrations are large and framed with primary colours, the few words are carefully chosen and clearly laid out. Highly recommended for children three and under.--Joan Skogan, Vancouver BC"Canadian Materials, Vol. 19, No. 6" (11/01/1991)
