Genre:
Children’s Picture Book
Description:
“This is a wonderful children's bedtime & dreaming story about a
one-of-a-kind relationship of mommy whale with her little beluga daughter.”
Author:
“Children, art, and her little family.
Nanna Elliana’s vision was to create books with positive messages for
children. Simple stories with a valuable lesson or just a joke that could bring
a smile to a child. A unique style with a lot of creativity that can bring any
tale of imagination and adventure to new heights.”
Appraisal:
Designed as a bedtime story and an excellent length for that purpose, Because I’m Your Mommy is a fun story
for young kids (think in terms of two up to six-ish) although I could see a
sibling a few years older enjoying it with a younger sibling, either with the
parent reading or possibly reading it to the younger sibling.
The message is clear without being overbearing. I remember as a kid
when my constant questions of “why?” to my parents got to be too much that
often the answer I got back was “because I’m your mother.” This story has
nothing to do with that. Instead it has a message of love. An explanation for
why your mother does what she does for you. I’m sure the feeling of love will come
through for the kids hearing it. (And if you’re a dad or grandparent and think
the Mothers are getting all the good press, change the words up and it will
work just as well if you make it “Because I’m Your Daddy.” Or not. It’s up to
you and works either way.)
