Who loves the Little Lamb? by Lexlie Evans
Who loves the Little Lamb is the sweetest book written in rhyming words. This book tells of a mothers love for her young one even when they have fussy, messy, naughty and the list goes on. Only a mother can still love her child under these conditions. Unconditional love is the them of the whole book. You may take a sneak peek of the book here. The pictures are beautifully done as well.
Who loves the bumbling boar?
"That's all right, there's plenty more." Mama loves her little boar.
A fussy lamb is crying, but her mama dries her tears.
A noisy bird is chirping, so his mama gently sweetens his song.
A sleepy kangaroo is fading, and her mama carries her in her safe, cozy pouch.
Even when kids are not at their best-no matter what, no matter when-mothers love their little ones. Lezlie Evans sooting text delivers this timeless message with grace, and David McPhail's charming watercolors of baby animals and their mamas strike the perfect tone: safe, sweet, and gently playful. This special book is just right for every child craving reassurance, and for every parent searching for words to express unconditional love.
