Book Description

What If There Were No Moms?

The very thought can be frightening!

Moms do the most, but get the least recognition in the world! Their love, patience, and endless trips to the ballpark are often taken for granted. It's time to tell moms everywhere how special and loved they are.

This fun yet heartwarming book will delight any mom and let her know how much she is appreciated for all she does. Inside, charming illustrations bring to life the words of an enchanting poem that tells how much Mom does and how we couldn't get along without her.

This is a gift book any mom will cherish and the perfect way to honor the love, compassion, tenderness, and support they give us. It confirms what Mom has known all along -- you really can't live without her!

What if there were no moms? Really. Nowhere. Like, what if one day they just were not there? No notes on the fridges. No voice mail. No traces. No moms in their normal, predictable places. We would fidget and fumble and bumble around, at the thought that no mothers might ever be found. Panic would spread. It would start right away. Handwritten notes would be things of the past. "How was your day?" Well...no one would ask. So let's stop all this horror, this folly, this fiction, and celebrate Mom with a jig in the kitchen!
