Amazing Reference for Pregnancy, Birth, and Baby Care,
By Liberty Mroczek (Indiana, USA, Plant Earth) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mamatoto: A Celebration of Birth (Hardcover)
Beautifully adorned with mothers and babes, this collection allows the Western mother and mother-to-be to step out of our comfort zone and let mothers' of the world teach us. Packed full of information in an easy-to-read style. Mamatoto offers what no other prenatal/pregnancy book can... spirit and guidance in what often feels like uncharted territory. Enjoy this book completely until it is in tatters- like mine.

A Multi-cultural Pregnancy Overview,
By A Customer
This review is from: Mamatoto: A Celebration of Birth (Mass Market Paperback)
While most pre-pregnancy books focus on the medical aspects of pregnancy and childbirth, this wonderful little book looks at the cultural and spiritual aspects of becoming a mother. Full of poems, stories, true anecdotes, humor, and beautiful photos and artwork from around the world, this book gives the reader a more accurate view of pregnancy than any medical text could. This book makes a wonderful gift not only for expectant mothers, but for those who already have children (or grandchildren).
