Editorial Reviews

From the Author

I wanted to create a mother-to-daughter journal for every age. It's a kind of diary I will keep for my daughter when she has a baby; a book I hope my mother will one day present to me.

Self-taught, she began exhibiting her paintings when she was just fifteen.

This book is a must for mothers who want to pass on an intimate,candid and historical record of their memories of their mothers,asking what your earliest memory was of her, what she smelled like or what she wore, what she loved, her shortcomings. It moves through our own childhood (our best friend, our best/worst memories,advice given but not taken,favorite recipe. There are a few spots for favorite pics of your mom, you and your daughter. Lastly, you write about your legacy & dreams for her. It is a carefully laid out format, simple w/stunning paintings of daughters/mothers Victorian style with a contemporary accent. A great wedding or 21st birthday gift!

I received this book from my Mother this Christmas. What a wonderful idea! I learned things that my Mother wrote that I never knew. I am now going to purchase one for my daughter to give to her at the time she is married. This completed book from my Mother really touched me.

This review is from: To My Daughter, With Love (Hardcover)

This is a beautifully illustrated and beautifully written keepsake book from mother to daughter. My only complaint is that I wish I could find something similar for my adopted daughters.
